DFW 18L

[Bobsk8 12,848]

I wish they would fix DFW runway 18L, and get rid of the one foot ridge 1/2 way down the runway, so it doesn't tear  off the landing gear in the 737. on the landing roll out. .

KDFW needs a LOT of love in MSFS.

Funny. While I haven't flown in or out of there since SU14, I flew a Cessna around the other day and THOUGHT it looked a lot better so I ASSSUMED they had fixed. Sorry to hear they didn't 😞

Those are always an unpleasant surprise.  There used to be one at LatinVFR’s Nellis AFB.  I hit it once in the F-104 just as I was about to hit rotation speed (>200 knots)….let’s just say I got airborne, but not in the controlled manner I had planned on 😀

It's been a much requested ask.

Solution is 'just' to delete 3D Photogrammetry Cities from WU10 - USA.

The whole area of DFW is a mess. I never fly into there.

No one has come up with a patch posted on .to like what was done to Arlanda?

I’m surprised DFW hasn’t been been done by any good payware dev. I’d pay a lot of money for a good one.

I wonder if the airport, being so giant and straddling 2 counties, has something to do with this. Every version I've seen has this invisible hills/etc. problem. 

Spanning two chunks of scenery data? Puzzling, since it is one of the world's busiest airports and nobody has provided a great rendition.

Being affected by Fort Worth's photogrammetry, apparently.
