\"\ud83d\udcdc\"  Sample description<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is a cockpit view of the runway. It looks like very early morning or late evening. Maybe it is autumn, because the forest in the background and the trees on the right have no leaves. There is fog over the runway. The runway lights are on. They help pilots operate safely at the aerodrome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
