Branson, MO – Following the improper landing of a Southwest Airlines 737-700 at M. Graham Clark Downtown Airport, the Taney County airstrip has partnered with local Branson entertainer Yakov Smirnoff to promote a “No–BKG!” campaign to dissuade larger aircraft from landing at the smaller airport.

“We have had close calls, but this last one really trumped everything else and we felt that we needed to do something to protect travelers in the future. Fortunately, Mr. Smirnoff has agreed to help,” said airport spokesperson Aaron Twimpler, “Over the years he has popularized the phrase ‘No KGB’ and we’re just adjusting the copy a bit to remind pilots of large aircraft that they should not use our field (No–) and suggest that they find the airport code for Branson (BKG!).”
