    Tweaked to ensure all taxiways were intersecting correctly and taxi lines were correct. Also updated the ramp starts for small aircraft only. Now awaiting any X-Plane suggestions and updated object notifications.

    Grosse Ile Municipal Airport, located near Detroit, MI is a non-controlled small airport on an island in the Detroit River. Although the sim shows a circled wind sock. What is actually there is a wind direction cone made of metal, supposedly invented and placed by the late Thomas Edison. A great many celebrities flew out of the Naval Air station there during and after WWII. 2nd upload, due to the removal of an extra object on field that was not needed.
