Maybe it's just me, but something's seems weird...

I flew into Western Washington on the simulator, and once I got on the western side of Rainier, I noticed that the simulator was rendering winter textures. I reloaded it and everything was green like spring. Has anyone else had this glitch before?

I then noticed that the ICAO code for Swanson Field was 2W3. I refered to my sectional chart and it said it was WA20. This map is only 5 years old, but I could swear that it used to be WA20, not 2W3 in FS2002. Could someone check this out on their simulator

It's called 'Swanson Field' and it's located in Eatonville, Washington, USA.

As a matter of fact, I lived right next to this airfield for many years ;)

Swanson is listed as 2W3 Eatonville Washington and Swanson Field as MY95 Crown Minnessota both enjoying lovely spring weather as they should. Don't know Andrew!

the textures are weird...

if it's winter in the northern hemisphere, it's winter in the southern hemisphere too (in FS2000)
