Snow Banks!

I couldn't let the cold stop me any longer.  I needed to fly.  So today I drove an hour to the Blairstown airport intending to do just that.  But somehow, despite the condition of my own driveway, I failed to consider this...

There was a bit of a crosswind and I haven't flown but twice since October.  The thought of catching one of these banks and cartwheeling into a heap of wood, metal (and me) changed my mind and I just had a sandwich at the restaurant instead.  Anyway, as long as we are suggesting things, I want snow banks.  Those pictured don't look like much but they top out at about 5 feet.  The Stalingrad runways were obviously plowed, right?  What did they do with the snow?  My guess is that they did just what my airport did above.

Well, when I last played the game about a month ago, I could (and would) just veer of the runway and take off from the snow. Seeing as that would be impossible with snow banks, I'm all for snow banks!
