Hole at Heathrow 1961

Hi Guys,

Just found a massive hole at one of the RH turnoffs on 27L for the freeware LHR 1961. Difficult to say exactly which one it is as it was one of those holes that throws you 200ft into the air :o I should really have cancelled the flight there and then but didn't and a consequence is that the aircraft went from 97.6% to 94.4% forcing a 3-day maint at a cost of $4,400,000.

It's worth noting that the scenery isn't really made for use with VFRPhot/VFRTerrain so those of you NOT using these will probably not have a problem. Sadly, I'm gonna have to take it off my system as I can't afford to have this happen again. Fortunately, the Tri3 flights I've done over the past few days more than cover the cost of the maint but that's beside the point :-(

Hey Garry, If it's a big hole and someone "looks into it" and shouts, will they hear an echo ?

Hello! ............ Hello!.................. Hello! .............Hello!.................. Hello!
