August 18, 20214 yr Moderator This morning I took a short flight from Flightbeam NZAA down to default NZWN. After landing I noticed lots of taxiway signs on the taxiway rather than on the grass. I reported it on the P3D forum and really didn’t expect to get any official response. But to my amazement I had a reply this evening acknowledging the issue and advising it will be fixed in the next update. So if you do find bugs please report them. I’m sure they appreciate the feedback. http://www.prepar3d.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6312&t=143257 Ray (Cheshire, England).

I hadn’t even bothered looking Steve. 😁 A likely purchase but I’ll still check the default when the update is released. I’m adding airports for future Concorde flights. I did manage Honolulu to Auckland a couple of years back but it’s beyond the safe fuel limit. Not bad in 4 hours though. Ray (Cheshire, England).

August 18, 20214 yr You might want Godzone's (Robin Corn's) NZCH Christchurch then. The Concorde visited there once or twice. Nice scenery down that neck of the woods. YSSY to NZCH would be a nice testing ground for it! Cheers Steve Hall
August 19, 20214 yr Just as an aside, talking about FB's NZAA. Does anybody else find the runway/taxiway surfaces to be weirdly dark and scruffy? The first time I landed there, I didn't recognise the runway as a runway and almost landed on the side tarmac, only realising when I was right on top of it. Intel i7 6700K @4.3. 32gb Gskill 3200 RAM.

Ian, this is what it looks like for me in v5.2HF1 with EA/HDR both OFF. I treated myself to Christchurch and Wellington this morning. Emirates operate a 380 into Christchurch so long enough for Concorde. 👍 Ray (Cheshire, England).

A 10,700ft runway would be pushing it for long haul. Was the screenshot helpful? Ray (Cheshire, England).

It got fixed immediately with the next Hotfix! Edited August 20, 20214 yr by rob0203
