Yep your being to picky wink_o.gif but all feedback is welcome.

It's a military airbase so it doesn't really need a terminal building does it ? And whats wrong with my double runway, I love my double runway sad_o.gif it has plenty of taxiways.

This is only one of four airbases/ports I'm gonna have on my island, two military, one grass runway and a civilian airport, so your bound to like at least one of them. Especially as you've just volunteered to design my civilian airport yourself biggrin_o.gif

Yeah, I thought so biggrin_o.gif

I guess it really doesn't.

I guess the double runway is fine, I guess the point I wanted to make was the taxiways should be improved.  I only suggested removing one of the runways to make room for the taxiways.

I really like the Airports, the textures are well used, and its cool (if unrealstic) to take off next to a team mate at the same time biggrin_o.gif

Keep up the great work smile_o.gif

Well you wont be banging wing tips as you hurtle down the runway, there's at least a 50m meter gap between them.

Parallel are not that unusual.

Yes, parrallel runways are quite common, Los Angeles International, Midway, Pittsburg, Charlotte, Dallas Ft. Worth all have parralel runways.  However, if you wanted to get technical, 50 meters is not really enough space between runways to conduct same direction operations, and nowhere near enough space to conduct opposite direction operations.  According to AIM 3-8-3, the minimum distance between the centerlines of parrallel runways for same direction operations for light single engine planes is 300ft.  For twins it's 500 ft, and all other aircraft need 700ft.  Lesser distance is ok, you just can't use both runways at the same time, which is the whole purpose of having parrallel runways.

Ok, I'll shut up now tounge_o.gif
