| | Secret Tenerife: Can we still fly to Tenerife North? |
 | | Green writes, "Formerly known as Los Rodeos, it was from here that General Franco flew to the mainland in 1936 to ignite the Spanish Civil War." (Tenerife North Airport still is at Los Rodeos). |
 | | Similarly, while the Tenerife Disaster of March 27, 1977, did indeed take place at Los Rodeos, the airport was in no way implicated in the blame for that accident, which killed 583. |
 | | Los Rodeos airport has been modernized a lot in 30 years, so that mentioning that disaster in the same breath as tourist flights today, is really a bit unkind and unnecessary, in my opinion. |
