Scenery bug report

Scenery is out of date in a number of areas.
Stands 5 and 9 are now perpendicular to the pier and not angled as shown in the sim. Stands 6, 6A, 7, 8 all need to be checked as well.
Stand 5 is missing from the list of available startup positions and is occupied by objects (baggage carts etc) in the sim.
Stand 30 was renovated to accommodate the A380 and now features a triple air bridge - see https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-47894462 for information and a few photos
Stand 31 is missing completely
Stands 37/37L/37R and the pavement in this area is missing.
Stands 80/81/82 are generally only used for storing aircraft, they don't operate services. Recently British Airways A319/320 aircraft have been parked here pointing away from the control tower (the opposite way to how a stand would normally operate).
Taxiway C (the old crosswind runway) is no longer in use as a taxiway
There are areas of forest and individual trees placed outside the airport boundary which aren't there in real life.
There is a mix of touchdown zone marker styles on the runway - RWY23 has the international style but RWY05 still has the UK style. They should both be international style.
Stand numbers (painted on the tarmac) aren't shown in the sim which isn't a major problem due to the small size of the airport but would still be nice to have them added.
And, a couple of small issues - the static aircraft outside the British Airways maintenence hangar (off taxiway K) isn't a BA aircraft. Last time I was there in real life, they were doing an engine test on a BA A320. Finally it needs some roads exclusion zones as the sim is drawing normal roads over the roads that have been modelled in the airport scenery.
I have tried to capture everything but I'm sure I've missed something!

    I should add, taxiway C comment refers to section between the RWY and the main taxiway - I think the other portion is still in use by the GA apron.

    I think all of this was fixed by the latest version of the person that reported the bug, thank you!
