Hopefully 06/24 will live on in FS for some time. <g>

It's a pity it had to close as secondary runways are always useful but the
report suggests it has hardly been used recently. The plan of the runway
extension is interesting as I would have thought it would have been longer.
It's a huge amount of work for such a short addition - especially moving the
Coventry road..
