Hello,
the CIFP data for RWY 04/22 is incorrect. Corrected positions for the grass RWY 04/22
04: 50.703797 / 8.083611
22: 50.707409 / 8.088051
Skyvector data is at the same off-position and above positions are confirmed with Google Maps, Bing Maps and ArcGIS Maps
Thanks

    These coordinates are published by the AIP germany, so they are the official location of the runway. Since it is a grass runway my guess is that the location of the runway might change from year to year depending on where they mow the grass.
    It depends on the airport manager of the real world airport to report the location of his mowed grass to the DFS for publication. If their reporting doesn't coincide with this year's mowing pattern, there's nothing X-Plane can do about that.

    Thanks for your reply. As the runway is located between trees I thought the positions where reported incorrect or not precise enough (since they are not in the official AIP). If you cannot change this position I will locate the runway accordingly .
