I can't remember if its nearby, but isn't Brookhaven out there somewhere? I recall overflying it, inbound for PVD, and noticing the distinct outline of the particle accellerator on the ground.Looked like a big circular dirt road (from around FL27-30ish).If you are also doing terrain textures, perhaps that would be a good addition.
