I've seen numbers painted on the ground in Falcon before.  I was flying at
the easiest level so I could land anywhere and do anything.  I believe I was
in the northwest corner and I landed near the numbers and taxied right up to
them.  Switching to satellite and zooming, I saw 2 numbers that I assumed
were coordinates or something.  I just thought they were included as a part
of the development of the game--maybe a debugging tool?

Another thing I've noticed is that if you fly indefintely in any direction,
the terrain goes into a repeat loop, and you'll fly past the same mountains
and rivers every minute or so.

I wonder if there are any real secrets to Falcon?  I don't think I've
seen that "flying white line" that you've all been talking about.
