    I noticed that when you spawn in at Barra airport, there are grass runways which in real life isn’t the case as the airport is the beach. Would it be possible to make it juts sand instead?

    Exactly. Also, it would be great if the three "runways" and runway lightning is removed, as Barra airport has no night-lightning on the beach nor does it allow for night operations.

    Kind Regards,

    In addition every minor airfield does not feature four bar PAPIs. A very occasional 2 bar PAPI or sorely missed VASI would be both appropriate and more pleasing.

    I had to google Barra airport to find out where it was. It is in the Outer Hebrides, in the northern reaches of the UK. I suspect it gets even less visitors than Palau which is is where I was a couple of weeks ago. I am thinking that it will probably get more visitors via IPACS than in reality now. 😀
