Depands on what you want, if you want all aircraft, then East. But you get also a lot more than aircraft alone. West is nice for take off, but you wil miss fighters as they will be to high for a decent shot.Banter wrote:The 'Old Heads' say " west is best " ..........LifelinerOne wrote:So guys, what's your recommendation; P&V West or East for Departure Day?
