Hi,

I'm getting a little annoyed with several airports because they have runways that are too short for any plane to take off from. Pretty much all the ones that I've found so far are located in Central America (mainly Belize), but I want to know is can we get new planes so that we can fly to them or are they going to be replaced with slightly larger airports?

Cheers

Why even bother having these airports in the game if the game does not have any airplane that can operate to them.....

I'm currently coming up with a list of airports to replace them... I've been looking for planes to access these routes but all I got is the Britten Norman BN2A Islander and the Gippsland GA8.

While I was searching for new airports, I came across several airports that have been included in the original sim2. Would it be ok to have them added in sim3?

nope its not... river on one side, road on other...

IAD is there for a reason. also 767's can only operate out of DCA on short routes.
