woah mods are gonna love this thread :P


- if i remember correctly that happens at all big airports, something to do with your POV and if they are flat on ground then the user cnt "read" them properly

yes, they are HOVERING... :o

those lights are for some reason, set about 2 feet above the ground..... very odd indeed :-?



not odd enough to spoil my flight tho :D i happen to agree with the above signature ;D ;D ;D
