• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

Try making your flatten larger?

Back to the topic.
It doesnt help. I noticed it also on the new created airfield (the whole runway disappears at some angles). I saw few topics about this issue on P3D/SOH/Avsim forums but till now it isnt solved. Looks like a bug in P3D from v3 to v5 in some special situations (nobody know it 😄 ) I suppose.

However I solved it finally.... maybe not solved but fixed with one trick.



Maybe it helps for you if you noticed the same issue.
I found this topic too https://www.avsim.com/forums/topic/488783-scenery-disappearing-under-certain-angles-p3dv32/ and the last post was interesting for me, checked and Voila!
You must from ADE add the new aprons (TERMAC) in any place far from the runway (4000-5000m) - it fixes this. You can mask it by buildings ect. It may be very small. From then on, this newly created Apron will disappear also on some angles, but this is not very important as it is not part of the airport in terms of airport level visibility.

For example my "fixes" for 2 disappearing airfields.





For the one I added it below VOR station as background, for the second on dark place of autogen of LC.
