    Indeed it will, Ed! There are so many picturesque airfields with character in New England. I'm looking forward to doing a whole bunch of them.

    Very cool. I too enjoy Plum. I do a lot of simming in that area. (VA actually flys there) I am from the area originally.

    Perfect timing...I just started rewatching my WINGS DVDs....I had to look up TOM NEVERS FIELD from the show (the sign they always show in front of the airport) and found it was KACK and
    that TOM NEVERS FIELD was fictional for the show. Although, there are quite a few TOM NEVERS locations on the island that truly exist. Looking forward to this one.
