Was taxiing to Runway 32 from the apron and it said the plane hit something. Reloaded and tried taxiing to 32 again from the apron and it said I hit an object again. Might want to look over the taxiway to 32.

Nice! I recently did a flight out of there IRL in a Foxbat that was parked exactly where you have the Cessna in the shot with the stone entrance sign near RWY 14. So much better with the overhang, fuel station, FBO, etc.

Thanks for re-visiting this ... but the green/white beacon light is still hovering in mid-air. Is my scenery details slider not up high enough to show support mast?

Great plug-in only one problem. Need to make sure takeoff assistance is off or you will have no control of throttles and flaps till above about 300 feet AGL.
