Possible shortest route
Pilot Scott Hunziger, based out of Auburn, submitted the diagram shown here. He writes that this is "the shortest path that I've found through the Washington Passport airports. Finding [it] is an example of the "Traveling Salesman" problem, which is known as an extremely difficult problem. My computer crunched on it for a week and this is the best it came up with, but there could always be an even shorter path waiting to be discovered. Of course it's kind of an academic exercise. For one thing, it assumes that you can fly directly from one airport to another which of course you can't."
Note: this route was compiled using the Participating Airports list in Fall 2019. The list has since been updated. See the MAP page for the latest.
