Why CMN?

The code CMN comes from the French name of the city: CasaMeaN (Wait, actually it usually refers to Casablanca Mohammed V, or historically ComMuNity? No, historically it stands for Casablanca Moulay Nouar? Actually, IATA codes are often obscure. Usually it's just a contraction of Casablanca Mohammed N).

Actually, the IATA code CMN was originally assigned to the Cazes airbase (Anfa), and later transferred to Mohammed V (Nouasseur). It simply stands for Casablanca.
