This airport is directly located on the roadway (Eyre Hwy, Eucla), but in X-Plane it is incorrectly located further to the north. The runway is actually on the road. This needs to be fixed in the Gateway airport but more importantly fixed in the default X-Plane apt.dat.
Problem trying to correct. The runway is the road itself.
The autogen'd road has trees either side> to remove these tress and also to get the markings showing, which do exist on the real road! you have to exclude this section of the road. Unfortunately excluding removes the whole road as far as the eye can see in both directions!

Fixed version pending release with one of the next XPlane updates.
