Hawkins?[]

This guy says he was sent down from Hawkins to service the plane. I have no idea what he's referring to - a place, an air force base, a mechanic company, what? I've removed the link for now, but I dunno if anyone else knows what Hawkins refers to.--Acer4666 (talk) 13:54, January 11, 2012 (UTC)

I'm venturing a guess based on what is written, cause I haven't seen the episode in awhile. But wouldn't it be that he said "Hawkins sent me"? which probably refers more to a person than a place or company. Just saying. It still needs verifying. Thief12 23:12, January 11, 2012 (UTC)
I think the exact line was:
Mitch Anderson: Are you servicing the phoenix?
Lenkov: Yeah, they sent me down from Hawkins.
I'm fairly sure that would be referring to a place or company rather than person. But who knows? I was expecting to find like a well-known place near LA or a big air force base somewhere, but Google isn't helping!--Acer4666 (talk) 01:50, January 12, 2012 (UTC)
Pretty common, when they call McGuire Air Force Base just "McGuire", or Andrews, or Edwards. Blue Rook  talk  contribs 03:40, January 12, 2012 (UTC)
Yeah, but those things are normally little real-world references to existing air bases. It seems odd they would invent a fictional air force base and then mention it in passing like that. This is the only airport type thing called "Hawkins", and it's in Mississippi so I doubt he would've been sent to LA from there!
But still, if we assume it is an air force base, would it be ok to name the article "Hawkins Air Force Base" to avoid a messy dab with Hawkins?--Acer4666 (talk) 13:11, January 12, 2012 (UTC)
