LOL...The FCC doesn't extend to Japan.  Also the codes would fall more
inline with the ICAO representations.  Which as we know, 99% of the the US
(mainland) ICAO codes match the IATA codes (-) the K prefix.  Also during
the previous discussion, there are some airports that do have the ICAO "K"
prefix then a "W" following:
KWYS, KWWD, KWVI, KWST, KWRB, KWMC, KWHP, KWDG, KWBW.  Their is only one
airport with a "K", and that is KKLS, These are are no K "Q" airports.
