That's how we sold a company I was with on the need for DR years ago. Headquarters overlooked the west end of the south runway of Miami International Airport. We used a graphic of the building and then another one with a planes tail sticking out. That's all it took.

From the parking lot on those late nights, I remember watching the string of airplanes overhead lining up to land at O'Hare. At first, it was just in amazement at how many planes there were in that seemingly never ending line. Then I wondered, is a recover center on the landing path to O'Hare really a good idea...

I have no idea what they were thinking outside of the fact that the could get tapes in and out of the city quickly.
