Hi everyone,

May I know how can I report an error in MP Map? The runway numbers of VTBS are shown incorrectly.

Thank you.

please explain exactly what you mean... are you saying the runway numbers are wrong when compared to FG's data or are you saying they're wrong compared to real life?
"You get more air close to the ground," said Angalo. "I read that in a book. You get lots of air low down, and not much when you go up."
"Why not?" said Gurder.
"Dunno. It's frightened of heights, I guess."

I think he mean the ILS systems. Activate it and you will see what he mean.
The info boxes and signal cone are wrong located. The transmitter it self is correct.

Hi everyone,

My apologies for not providing a more comprehensive explanation.

wkitty42, you are right about it. The the runway numbers are wrong in FG compared in real life.

And besides this, I also noticed that there are a number of airstrips in FG but are not found in the MPMAP. So in a nutshell, how can we provide feedback as far as MPMap is concerned?

Thank you.

In the bottom right corner of the MPMap on http://mpmap02.flightgear.org there is a link to the fgmap bug tracker on GitHub.
