The clearing that served as the airstrip came into sight past the edge of the mountain, still surrounded by destroyed fighter jets and abandoned vehicles but without any sign of the Grand Dutchies' army.
The grass growing through the cracks in the hastily created airstrip showed that it hadn't been used in a while, but Wolfe made a slow pass over top anyhow to make sure there wasn't anything hiding that could be a danger to the plane.
The wildlife had cleaned up even the bones of the soldiers, but the damage Wolfe had done to the runway remained. It wouldn't be an issue today, as he had damaged it closer to where the planes were parked, near the far western end of the runway, so he circled around and came back for a landing.
The twin-engined plane glided down the pavement to a stop just short of the damaged pavement near the plane graveyard that used to be the staging area.
