According to FAA charts, 09/27 and 18R/36L are no longer in use. Trying to work on this Airport with them in place is a NIGHTMARE with WED 1.5. See Attachments. The WED screenshot has the closed airports hi-lighted in red.

    One thing I forgot to mention; if 18R/36L is eliminated, 18L/36R should be renamed to 18/36, and the ILS approaches for both runways should be renamed, too.

    We don't yet have a way to mark runways "closed" (no paint marks or such) but if the runway pavement is still visible it should probably remain part of the scenery.

    Can the runways be removed if I develop this airport for submission to the Gateway, since the FAA says they are no longer used? Even the Airport fact sheet that they publish says they only have 2 runways (see attachment)

    Airport was updated in the meantime.
