Gray vs Green Buildings

Featured Replies

Hi Alex and everyone,

I may have missed this change in the past, but looking at certain airports since my last update such as the one included in the image below, I have noticed that some of the structures are gray and some are green. I guess that does not hurt anything that some are green, but I am wondering why.  

Thanks for this outstanding contribution to the flight sim community!

Warmest Regards,

Hi Bob,

this comes from the scenery. The green areas are grass aprons and the gray ones are asphalt or concrete. The modelling is up to the scenery designer.

Some even abuse aprons to create structures not related to airports.

You can disable the aprons in options on "Map Display 2" in the tree on the right in branch "Airport Details".

Hi Alex,

Very good!  Given that I fly into the MSFS AI scenery-generated airports more than not, for now, I am glad to be able to turn it off.  Thank you so much for the speedy response and this incredible tool you have created.

Warmest Regards,

Bob Domine
