Those wishing to fly to the new ZJHK Meilan Airport, please use only the South runway for landings until a location issue with the new North runway is resolved. I conducted takeoff tests and had no problems with the North runway, but landings were problematic only on the North runway due to its location.
However, there are no issues with the South runway.
Is there a similar problem with addon scenery for Moscow Domodedovo (UUDD)?
If I recall correctly one of the runways has been decommissioned but is still active in the addon scenery I purchased. I received severe penalty when using that runway.
whenever you encounter a similar problem, don’t hesitate to let know the ICAO of the airport involved, in order to fix it manually. Sometimes the automatic border configuration doesn’t apply well and doesn’t cover the entire structure. sometimes also there are real enlargements of the airport it self , but if the modification is based on adding a runway, I suppose Simfly can’t “add” a runway on the map, because the simfly map is “owned” by Mapbox (maybe the issue regarding UUDD https://forum.simfly.io/t/update-airport/12200/7 ) .
But if it’s only a matter of most of the issues, and that is: not always the borders of the airport surround the actual position, then in this case Simfly can make a bigger “polygon” that will include the entire airport. This is different from adding a new runway on the Mapbox site. For UUDD , Mapbox has only 2 runways displayed.
we’ve checked the airport radius for ZJHK and found that it was set incorrectly, so it wasn’t properly covering all runways. The issue has now been fixed.
Thank you for reporting this. I’ve also replied to you privately via the support ticket.
Absolutely right.. I wouldn’t pay either just to see the mapbox map update my airport.. i rather keep it as it is until they decide to update it themselves. (Mapbox)
Thanks for the help! Getting back to the topic of my new airport, ZJHK, it’s quite obvious we have another problem.
The first issue was resolved successfully. But now, on this landing, the system is penalizing the taxi; it’s not recognizing anything even though I followed all the procedures correctly—taxi and lights, everything was done right!
On my second outbound flight with my Diamond DA62, I was penalized in the same way on the same runway, even though I did everything correctly.
Thank you for the details provided. We will review the situation more thoroughly after the release of the User Marketplace Airports and will keep you updated.
