Newark?

Oh yeah . . . Newark, that tiny little airport just outside of NYC with all that open land south of it . . .

Nope, although I can see how you could mistake it for EWR:

By the way, dude, you'd love the Sierra Denali . . . (the new version, not the "Classic" one they are also selling). Check it out sometime.

Correct, it isn't.

Ummm, yea. Got lucky with the first one, it had very distinctive terrain, this last one is pretty vague. It could be any smallish town, anywhere!!

Looking at all those houses, I wouldn't exactly say it's a small town.



That could be, any where.

No, it's not a small town - but it doesn't look like a major city, the airport would have a lot more buildings and a connection to an expressway. It *might* be an old military base in a suburban area though, that single runway does look pretty long.

It sure is - he cut the main runway out of the picture - it parallels the north/south runway we see to the east. Their stadium is out of the picture too.

Damn, and I was just looking at that area in and around Denver on Google the other day. My aunt used to live in Ft. Collins.

OK -

When I first started this game a year or so ago, every place I posted was eventually identified . . . except one.

This is it. No one ever got it.

I was born in this town (a long time ago)

Good luck with this one:

Bring it on...I'll probably miss the next one anyhow!
