Working on an airport upgrade, I made by error a runway with length = 0 and this error was not detected at the validation step. The result was it crash XPlane , either with the proposal to send / cancel the dump file, either a message XPlane is completely out of memory. This control should be implemented on validation step.

    Runway minimum length and width are validated - please attached the earth.wed.xml here where this can be exported.

    Attached the set of files generated by WED (I'm not comfortable with .xml files). In WED the wrong runway is 01/19 under /Taxi lines group

    Confirmed - this thing isn’t recognized as a runway at all by validation - so the applicable test is never run on it.
