The Terrain around Southport airport YSPT in Australia is wrong. There are 150ft trees shown at both ends of the runway 01/19 that do not allow an approach to the runway whereas in reality there are clearways of grass of 400 meters from the runway thresholds of both runways. There are displaced thresholds for both runways but even aiming for the displaced threshold requiring a steep dive, you cannot touchdown and stop in the remaining distance. The depiction in X-plane 11 is correct but having just updated to X-plane 12 I cannot practice circuits at my home aerodrome in x-plane12.
