Landing Advisories

Background
- "Interestingly found in this region is the Xilted Rattler, whose venom is used by natives to induce powerful hallucinations that really make this airport exciting!"
- ― Linden Department of Public Works.
Xilted airstrip, like many airstrips constructed by the Linden Department of Public Works (LDPW), is quite straightforward and bare bones. Equipped with a single 80m x 12m dirt runway, the airstrip is surrounded by rolling foothills, leading down to an open bay area that is spanned by the longest suspension bridge in Second Life - the Lordshore Bridge.
Although it has remained largely unchanged over the years, Xilted Airstrip (like its northern counterpart Subak Airstrip) was slightly altered in January 2015 following the establishment of the Jeogeot Gulf combat zone (of which it is a part). For a more combat-orientated theme, the airfield was equipped with a single (non-functional) anti-aircraft gun, crates, sandbags, and three small army tents.
