Airport Metadata Issue

In X-Plane, the name of the airport is Franklin Co. Airport. The real name is Triangle North Executive Airport. Please fix.

Thanks!

    This info will need to be changed in the scenery pack in WED. Once that's accepted on the Gateway, the airport info on the page will update as well.

    The add Metadata fields are grayed out on my scenery package in WED. Any thoughts?

    If I imported the pack directly from the Gateway it had complete metadata. If I opened a file from a previous version of WED, I had to use "update metadata" first.

    Issue fixed. I renamed the airport using the sidebar information in WED. The airport now shows correct name in X-Plane. Sorry for the confusion with the metadata.
    Thanks for the help

    Hey y'all I just got through creating KLHZ as accurate as I know how right now. Just tried the WED for the first time yesterday. Check it out.

    Hey Kevin,
    Thanks for creating the airport. I have a very detailed version of KLHZ that I created, but it contains files that are not supported for this platform. Still need to change them. Would you like to check it out? Also, I can't download your version yet, WED support apparently still needs to approve it.

    Just got approved on the latest version. I still need to tweak it a bit but the basic layout is there. Taxiway on the correct side now. Airplane parking is fairly accurate. Cant find a FBO that looks correct in the library but will look for a appropriate brick building when I get the time. Do either of you fly at TN?

    Looks good. Nice job. If you have an X-Plane.org forums account, I can send you the KLHZ package that I created. I think you will appreciate the detail. I currently don't fly yet, but am hoping too next year. What about you?

    Can you email to recvee@yahoo.com?

    Hey Jforney, yeah i'll take your stuff and work with it but beware... This is the first time trying this stuff for me. I decided to do it on a whim. I got tired of seeing just a runway. I actually do fly out of LHZ and am planning on building a large sim at my house one day just for fun.

    Hey Kevin, no need for me to send it, I finally got it uploaded to the forums website. Just enter the airport name into the search bar and download. I would appreciate feedback!

    Last upload by DocRabbit seems to fix this.
