Too much effort I think.

Also is there enough land on the terminal side to allow a taxiway down there? It's been awhile since I was there.

Apparently their long term plan's are this.

Seems to be logical, long term plan looks a goodie and more practical .

Didn't see a Orion but there was a Herc. a couple of days ago. Actually I recall lights doing circuits on Friday night last week and wondered what it was - presumably it was the Orion

Hey .. here is a little question maybe put forward to a PAC engineer or someone who has asked the reason, the turbine exhausts cantered .. I'm guessing I maybe correct, is this to counter torque of the spinning prop ?
