This is a new one :D

Airport shows up perfectly in OSM grasscover data, but is entirely missing in the X-Plane gateway. So, you get the grass around the taxiways but no actual taxiways and runways!

Caused some confusion while working on latest scenery package... please do ignore the aerobatic helicopter in the foreground.

Piper PA-28 from Williamsport to Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania. Pennsylvania is actually a very scenic state. I think one of those cars down below is Dwight Schrute driving to The Office.

Last week i have done a small test flight at the south poll station (icao: NZSP) and the results are:
1. global warming in flightgear turn south poll in a lake/sea
2. frame raid slows down when i fly over the south poll

Looks like you are right above at the geographic south pole and that there is a lack of elevation and landcover data.

Yes frame rate i was at the south poll. 8)
Even Landcover data is the problem i have no problem this can be fix in the WS3.0.
More interesting to me is frame rate drop if i fly my plane over the south poll and the graphical glitches at the south poll.

I have very similar experience, near the pole my fps dropped to 5.

Latest F-16CG (soon to be upgraded to CM) from Git. We are nearing an FGAddon release which is going to be a massive upgrade compared to what is currently available through the launcher.
