There is no runway 5 in Elko- Its runway 6. Also there is no elevated highway(Interstate 80) next to airport. Interstate is also on wrong side of airport
The flash pattern for civilian land airports is white-green. The KEKO beacon flashes a military pattern of white-white-green (and the two whites are incorrectly timed for military as well). Reference FAA-H-8083-25B
The airport beacon is also located at the wrong position, too far northwest and actually on the other side of the freeway. Here is an annotated GE photo showing the correct location (per the cycle 1707 22 Jun 2017 FAA Airport Diagram and the visible structure).
Completed the changes: Moved the beacon to the correct location and changed its type to Civilian for the correct flash pattern. Please look this over as I am a beginner.
The issue has been marked as closed since revised scenery that takes care of the issue has been submitted. This shows up as crossed out text on the Gateway, so you can still find a record of the bug if necessary but can tell at a glance that it's done.

Airport was updated recently, believe this is fixed.

Why is the title crossed out? Did I do something wrong?
