The runway textures are in : Your installation drive:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Flight Simulator 9\texture, all start with the word 'runway' ; runway11 and runway11_hw are for concrete, runway12 and runway12_hw are for asphalt, neither set affect apron or taxiway color/surface. ( none of the runway textures do ). If you have installed some additional AFCAD files the author(s) may have changed the surface type to be more real world accurate or to suit there taste, Eg. concrete to asphalt. Or, if you have changed the runway texture 'set', that could change the runway surface color intensity. Different authors of runway textures may very well have much different ideas on how they should appear. As an example concrete can very quite a lot in color from nearly white to medium gray depending on where it is manufactured.I hope this helps, and sorry if it got long winded.Best regards,Mel

You might want to look at, and try.... Airport Environment Upgrade 7 & Airport Environment Upgrade 8.You can find both files at flightsim.com.They are freeware, but do an excellent job with the runways at airports.
