Airport

In the Flight Strip, the ICAO codes for departure and arrival airports are displayed. They get a red status when the runway length is too short, or the Fire Fighting Category is not sufficient.

The Airport panel gives additional details for the airports, like runway information, Fire Fighting Category, and OPS1 Category. Also, Opening Hours are displayed. You can also add your own Operational Notes that have to be confirmed each time by the dispatch team and also general Notes.
