Just as I got airborne from PAMA to pop over to Yakutat.

There is a convenient road that points to the runway...

...but I had to go-around as something was on the runway!

No James...The Squadron allocate a letter of the alphabet to each aircraft as it is delivered...The first one is "A", the second "B"...and so on. The fifth one was for me and they put my name on it as well as giving it the "E" on the nosewheel door and the fin. "Echo" is the phonetic for "E".

Jonesey,

I think I will set that special texture to put snow on the taxiways and aprons instead...I think I'll wait for some snow on the runway first, then it will look right...It's in that RealEnvironmentPro in the WX Environment column. You just set the Dot on Snow :)
