ROFL! It's either in England or Germany....

'Cause only the Harrier or Fiesler Storch would ever make it in or out.

(And no; this time I'm not trying it with a 737!!) ;D )

Yes it is EGDP. MS put in the wrong airport type. ::)

A 737 cannot be stopped on the runway. Believe me I just tried. ;D :-/

Get the Twin Otter - I took-off, circled and LANDED on that tiny little strip ;D
Had about 3ft spare aswell ;D

Blackbird : Believe it or not, Portland Navy was a heli base, however the runway really is there - although it's got closed markings on it (FS one hasn't)

Also M$ put it too far inland >:(
Go to Anet and search for EGDP in all categories, it'll show you what it looked like in 2002.

Cheers all, just thought I'd share those minor details with ya ;)
