Denver Airport Runway Swastika Theory

RecordOBS-0186
CategoryGovernment/Cover-ups
StatusDEBUNKED
SummarySome claim the runway layout at Denver International Airport forms a swastika, symbolizing a Nazi or New World Order influence. The actual layout is a pinwheel design chosen for operational efficiency, and the resemblance is largely coincidental or selective.
OriginThe theory arose after the airport opened in 1995, when aerial views of the runway configuration became available.
Claimed
  • The runways are arranged to form a swastika.
  • The swastika shape is a tribute to the fascist New World Order.
Evidence / consensusThe runway layout is a standard pinwheel design that allows simultaneous operations in various wind conditions; the swastika resemblance is not accurate when the full layout is considered.
> OBSERVER NOTE:
Pareidolia on an aerial photograph. The pinwheel is a practical aviation design, not a political statement.
