I think some of those planes are still in the queue waiting for a takeoff slot.

If you see some Pan Am planes on the taxiway, don't tell 'em what happened.

I wonder if there's a 2010+ version that shows up the congestion on the access roads, the airplanes waiting for 30+ minutes for a gate, the planes queued up waiting for landing slots, or the routine hour+ delays despite having near-ideal weather conditions year round...

Don't tell them what? That King Hussein married Najeeb Halaby's (former Pan Am CEO) daughter, Lisa, and made her Queen Noor, Queen of Jordan?
