Yeah, you are correct. I found out what it was but never got around to editing the original. The runway usually doesn't close after it lands but when it takes off it blows crap all over the place and the sweepers come out and clean up. it normally takes 20 minutes or so. It lands runway 30, parks at the end and unloads and then departs 12. I am not sure why, the only thing I can think is that it can't taxi around the airport. It does pull onto the runway and does an engine run prior to departure. Lastly, the pilots barely speak English. Barely.
