The Airport is there but the island is missing. The Island was there in XPlane 10 but not in XPlane 11.
Airport code: 23082

    It appears the relevant scenery tile -20-170.dsf is not included in the XP11 global scenery at all. This tile contains nothing but this small island in the south pacific. This means the scenery gateway is not at fault here nor can it fix this.

    In the meantime - if you have a XP10 installation - please copy the file at

    Global Scenery/X-Plane 10 Global Scenery/Earth nav data/-20/-170/-20-170.dsf

    to the same place in your XP11 installation. This will bring the island back immediately.

    This will hopefully be fixed with the next version of Xplane.
