Overall a good rendition of the airport – a few comments below! I have been based at the real Caldwell airport for the last 5 years. I would love to see the runway textures improved – they are quite different from the real world (including recent satellite imagery). There is a strange colored strip down the center of 4/22, and the old markings on 28 (longer displaced threshold) are just as faded as the new markings. Would love for this to match the real world a bit closer. The font on the blue illuminated signage (on the main helicopter hangar) for 'Essex County Airport' is also not correct or close to the real world. Would love to see this updated. If I can be helpful and share any real-world photos, please let me know! My email is samcaviation@gmail.com
