Missing in 2020

I fly a lot in West Virginia. There are no beacons at the airports KHTS and KCRW. Also, there are several buildings missing at KHTS. How do I get this to the attention of the programmers?

Best way is to open a ZenDesk ticket as described in the sticky post near the top of this forum.  I did that to get some issues addressed at a favorite airport of mine, although it took a couple of update cycles.

assume you know about orbx KCRW?  It's excellent.  Though I can't remember if it has a working beacon or not

I was just thinking they could incorporate it in an update or something. The beacons are in some of the other airports.

Here is a look at my local airport, KESN Easton, Md.  Also take a look at KCTJ, Carrollton, Ga.  Building are missing, represented as flat blobs of melted color.  I opened a ticket on KESN at zendesk in September 2020.  When I later found KCTJ was much the same in February 2021 I opened a ticket at zendesk and in that ticket again pointed out KESN and documented both.  Nothing has been done and my zendesk has never received a reply.

Fortunately for me KESN has been nicely addressed with a great freeware addon at TO.  KCTJ has been addressed by another freeware developer.  Appears Asobo is interested only in their own pre-determined development map, taking some time along the way to attempt to fix what they break in the update to update process.

Check out the USA Small-Medium Airport Layout Fixes  addon available on TO.  There is a large number of improved airports in that addon made up of mostly badly neglected airports.  Contact that developer and ask him to take a look at KHTS.  I do not believe he is addressing smaller issues like a missing beacon.

Actually in retrospect the airport below may be the default KCTJ, not KESN, but both were missing all buildings and structures.
