The dimensions, location and heading of this airport's runway are wrong and, probably, also the accuracy of the whole airport if derived from the runway's data. The data published by Portuguese Government are:

THRESHOLD RW05:

32°41’23.75” N = 32.68993056 / 016°47’01.50” W = -16.78375000

THRESHOLD RW23:

32°42’21.03” N = 32.70584167 /016°45’54.54” W = -16.76515000

RUNWAY HEADING:

RW05 044.54° TRUE / RW23 224.54° TRUE

As a reference, there is a thread about this issue in the forums of X-Plane.org: http://forums.x-plane.org/index.php?/forums/topic/107684-madeira-island-runway-and-taxiway-alignment-issues/

The terrain elevation issue makes LPMA unflyable with contoured runways turned on. Is this issue scenery or LR related?

  • Locvirtual November 16, 2017 10:22 AM


    Sincere apologies, I had an LPMA ortho folder in my custom scenery which messed up the gateway scenery. Please disregard and accept my apologies.

    Hi Locvirtual,

    Do you have a screenshot? I have LPMA and I can fly just fine.
    I use the standard mesh as well.

    Thanks for your help.

  • Pedro Magueija November 16, 2017 10:24 AM


    no worries

    Cheers and have fun flying.

There is an overpass which runs across the runway rendering this scenery useless. How was this approved for Xplane ? The overpass is maybe 6 ft off the runway surface.

  • flyingpauls May 7, 2021 12:09 PM


    It has been uploaded because there is no such overpass with the default scenery on my system (see attached image). I am sure the moderator doesn't have one either. Maybe you have some other scenery installed? I use it with X-Europe and Ortho4XP, and it works there too.

    I second what flyingpauls says - I created ID 79350 and there was no road across the airport (cant see the attached images you guys posted, they dont load for me).

    It is probably some third-party road scenery installed incorrectly (in the scenery order ABOVE the global airports, so exclusion zones cant work on it).

Apron has an approx 8% grade downhill slope when it is flat in reality: https://www.jetphotos.com/photo/9578186

    An unfortunate side effect of the very challenging terrain mesh at LPMA, cant be fixed easily.

There are big bumps at the end of RW05 where planes turn around after backtracking. Please see attached screenshots.
