|
|
| Certain airport sceneries I have show grass instead of runway, ( straight down the runway ), during the take-off run, from certain "view" angles. Sometimes the asphalt appears temporarily, then disappears briefly, then reappears. Does this mean my airport scenery is too high or too low? Should the airport scenery for these particular facilities be raised or lowered? I have a utility that performs the scenery elevation adjustment function, ( JABBGL ), but I don't know how much to adjust the elevation, and I don't know whether to raise the elevation or lower it. ANY SUGGESTIONS, PLEASE? Anyone? |

| If you are seeing splashes of the landclass through your scenery, then you will need to raise it up just a skosh to be above the landclass enough to prevent it. Be aware though, that if you go up to high, you will cause aircraft stress damage and crash from bouncing onto or off of the runway, so you may have to make a best compromise. |

| Any suggestions on how far to raise my airport scenery above the landclass? In the utility "JABBGL" all number are expressed as 6 digits, with three digits being decimals, ( _ _ _ . _ _ _ ). I've never done this before. How much of an initial change is a reasonable, incremental change? I realize I'm on a "fishing expedition". |
