Boise's third runway

edit

Even within Boise, most people don't realize that the airport has three designated runways. No, I'm not referring to the interstate as some kind of emergency landing strip, but rather to the approx. 5,000 ft runway that sits about a mile south of the eastern end of the two main runways (about a half mile south of Gowen Road). A permanent link to that runway can be found at https://goo.gl/maps/tCLpXbwSWc52 (for those who are curious). I'm mentioning this because an IP editor removed info about the third runway from the info box, without a clear explanation of the reason why. I'm assuming it was AGF and that the editor thought there were only two runways at this airport. In any case, the image from Google Maps cannot be used in the article because of the way Google copyrights its maps and satellite imagery, but the curious are more than welcome to view the runway via the link.
