Rwy info in the tower

It would be nice if HTC would place an authentic-looking sign on the table in the tower that gives important runway information; most importantly the presence of mountains, hills, etc. and their known altitude.

I'm not much of a score guy, but it does affect stats when one has to spawn to the runway before they see that their chosen runway isn't suitable to a fully-loaded Lancaster.

Hat views in tower work fine for me.

You can hit F3 and look around at the runways from outside the tower.  I do this to make sure I don't try to take bombers off on the side that goes into mountains.

I hit F4, then F5, then F8 and I can then use number pad keys to check out the suitability of each runway.

P.S.   You can use the same combination with bomber formations to look around.  Use [ ] keys to zoom.
