Hi Howy_1987,
I've made this airport, and tried to see what you noticed. But I can't. See attached picture. Could you please put a picture in your comment to show the floating runway?
Are you using any additional scenery (e.g. Ortho4XP) that could cause the problem on your system only? Nobody else has ever reported this...
Cheers,
Hans
As i was doing extensive tests im a bit later with responding...
I was unsure about certain things but now i can say that Hansvw2 did a great job on the scenery and the issues were caused by a xplane 11 rendertool. I removed this one and also installed hansvw2’s package !
Thanks for the quick response and keep up the good work !
Peace !

When i fly from EBBR to EHEH
The runway is off ... its floating above the ground...
Any ideas ?
@xflyer: Very well spotted, thank you! Nobody ever noticed it the past 2 years. I have corrected the runway number sequences and changed the fence in the spotters area. Some nodes moved there unintentionally. I guess you ment that. The exact fence is very hard to follow on satellite images... Cheers!
Hold Short RWY 21 & Hold Short RWY 03 are both positioned on taxiways near runway ends, they are not real world positions, they are ramp starts not on the ramp
Often scenery artists put these “ramp starts” as convenience startup positions, so users can elect to spawn right there - instead of ON the runway or at the real ramp starts. As long as those ramp starts have the correct settings to avoid them having AI or static aircraft spawning there (i.e. misc), this does not pose a problem.

The runway seems to be floating... buildings and other scenery such as lights etc are in place

P.S. Adding a picture doesn't seem to work. I did attached a jpg picture, but it doesn't show up.

The issue is solved and was caused by a plug-in used by howy_1987. See: https://r.tapatalk.com/shareLink?url=https://forums.x-plane.org/index.php?/forums/topic/149622-the-terrain-is-so-much-higher-than-it-needs-to-be/&share_tid=149622&share_fid=21580&share_type=t
I've asked him to report this here, but he didn't so far.

1. Runway signs at R3, R4, R5 and R6 are wrong. Should be 21-03 (not 03-21)
2. The fence on north side of airfield is misplaced.
