FS2004 Scenery--Dutch Harbour And St Paul Updates, Alaska (AK), USA. This has revised runway circulation for both Dutch Harbor (PADU) and St. Paul (PASN) to better reflect reality in helicopter and aircraft operation. The new bgl's incorporate intermediate turnaround points to allow helicopters and small aircraft to turn around soon after slowing to taxi speed. They then taxi back to the aprons at the end of the runway, instead of trudging along the whole length of the runway twice. There are also revised AI bgl's to provide better time separation between flights, and a solution for PASN AI planes landing "below" the runway. The screen shots illustrate the different turnarounds for planes and helicopters. By Roger Wensley.
