MSFS2020 RJX8 Airport Diagram

Post by frankturley »

While on my tours I use the Show Airport Diagram function to help me sort out my approach to the destination airfield, and I normally get o good indication of the field layout showing runways, taxiways, parking etc.

While touring Japan I headed for RJX8, and I was surprised by the result - I can only say try Find RJX8, then select Show Airport Diagram, and you will see what I mean. I guess there's some rogue MSFS2020 data that triggers this.

This is the infamous MSFS "ground poly". Unfortunately they've replaced the aprons and taxiways of the traditional AFCAD with "ground polygons" that have no designated use beyond a "material" (eg concrete etc). There's no way (that I've found) to tell apart aprons and taxiways from random bits of rock - they're all just "ground polys". In their "handcrafted airports", Asobo tends to spray these polys around with liberal abandon, giving the results that you see.

The choice at the moment is between everything and nothing.
