No need to explain the nostalgic importance of this airfield... Remember those good old days again with this full recreation of Meigs Field! Take off again from runway 36 and see the sights of Chicago in the background, just like 20 years ago ;) Or simply enjoy this magnificent field to plan your trips around Chicago.
Enjoy!
