Scenery bug report

Product= XPlane
Version= 11.05
OS= Windows
Summary= False Field Elevation for KLAS / Las Vegas Mc Carran Intl
Description= The new default KLAS-Scenery as of XP 11.05 shows a false field elevation. It should be 1281ft instead of 1241ft.

Please see live charts, page 1:
http://de.flightaware.com/resources/airport/KLAS/ALL/all/pdf

The false field elevation also causes parts of the new Las Vegas Blvd scenery to hover (check the " Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas" sign). After manually fixing this, all strip scenery fits correctly on ground (when flattening scenery).
Steps= Check this line of the respective apt.dat:

1 2141 1 0 KLAS McCarran International

    Issue confirmed and fixed. I will provide Ben/Tyler with a revised KLAS in a few days as there are a couple of other issues also currently in progress for this airport.

    Hi Julian,

    you may also want to check the taxiways leading off of the runways while you are at it. I used KLAS a few weeks ago, and many taxiway exits were blocked by runway edge lights (see this post by Michael to see why that happens

    Cheers, Jan
