I'm relatively sure "realized" in this sense is a linguistic term, and when matched with "turkey", suggests "Turkish". I (now) suspect "The Fifth" clue refers to the fifth word in the riddle, "realized". A massive endeavor (to try), could be the Turkish Lira, with the ISO currency code TRY. The Turkish word for "arrow" is "ok", hence it would seem the spot we are seeking is likely in Oklahoma.
The "I fly" part so far has been a bust for me. I've been using benchmarks as a 4" x 4" geographical spot (did the same with Fenn's treasure hunt). I submitted SALLY, and its benchmark's coords, as a derivative of "answer", or a goose ("anser"), and was declined. I also submitted "SANTA" and its coords in OK and was also declined.
In Oklahoma, two TURKEY benchmarks, an EAGLE, and a DUCK still remain as logical things that fly. I'm no longer submitting, so good luck.

I had submitted the guess that the answer is the marker where the wheels stopped on the runway after the last Endeavor flight. Apparently they place a marker. But I got no reply and that was months ago. Also, I don't know how that relates to "Bourbon Red" or the Rudolph of the bird world. I sent in the SAME EXACT ANSWER. I think it is funny that people are coming up with the same answers to the riddle, like our answer, and answers that have to do with arrows, but none of them are the "correct" answer! I think this shows that the riddle is not very well-constructed. It may mean something to Pete, but not to anyone else. GeneticBlend or sus8383 - when you sent your submission did you explain your rationale behind the guess? (How it matched the clues etc)That appears to be a requirement. Additionally, did you specify which flight? Were referring to the "actual flight" or the one that brought it to LA?

Honestly, I can't remember if I explained the answer or not. But I do know I did not specify a flight.
