I'm betting that LM simply imported the landmark scenery objects from FSX, which is why they even exist in the P3D scenery.

That seems odd when v5 had the whole world’s coastlines refined. Plus the Shard didn’t exist in FSX.

I'm talking about scenery objects like famous monuments, buildings, and such.

I'm doubtful that LM would have spent time and effort to model and insert these types of things into the scenery as they aren't really necessary for flight simulation, but are instead eye candy.

Of course I could be wrong.  I don't know what the Shard is.

London’s tallest building shaped like a shard of glass. Hence the name.

I am on 5.4 and I have the new Wembley Stadium. So comments above are odd about 5.4 having the old one.

Haven't checked on my sim, but to be frank my scenery outside of airports is a bit barebones.

As for up-to-dateness... Well... Kai Tak still exists in my Sim World so I'm not too fussed on that front 😅

It was @okupton who confirmed the old one. Perhaps he could double-check. I'm told it's still the old one in v6 which is bizarre.

And it still piddles me off that Old Trafford (MUFC) has been in the sim since FSX days but no other famous stadiums like Anfield, Emirates (Arsenal), Man City (Etihad) or more recently, Spurs. ☹️

Here's what I see

P3d V5.4.9.28482

Def. not what I have. How did you get this image to post?

Sorry, just figuring out  how to post screenshots here after all these years!

I was a bit too quick to reply. I had forgotten that I have ORBX TE in those areas.

That would explain the difference.
