Hi! The airport XESV5 doesn't exist anymore. On Dec 22 2019 a new airport opened on the same location, and the new airport has ICAO ESKS, which previously was "Strängnäs Airbase".
I'm working on a new scenery for ESKS, which I will upload in a couple of days.
Info about the new airport here: https://www.aro.lfv.se/Editorial/View/IAIP?folderId=86

Thanks! /Peter

    Hi,
    the airport XESV5 doesn't need to be "removed" in this case. Simply make sure your new scenery has the airport ID XESV5 AND ICAO code ESKS (very important!) in its meta data before uploading it to the Gateway. This will effectively replace XESV5 with ESKS.

    Thanks Chriss84! Should I add XESV5 as a "Local code"?

    No, simply add ICAO code "ESKS". As said, important is to keep the airport ID "XESV5".
