Caution when flight planning, use Palmerola

It is now confirmed that aircraft up to 42 passengers will be the only ones using Toncontin because of the short runway. From now on, heavier aircraft operations than those referred with destination/departure Tegucigalpa will be performed from Palmerola, where a military base is located.
