Yup.. I see very clearly what you mean Joe. That hill isn't apparent on the default so I guess it's the addon you're using to start from that's causing it. I've had similar happen with certain airports though not as dramatic.

I know the St Barts you're using is freeware but have you taken a look at this from Fly Tampa .. http://www.flytampa.org/tncm.html

It covers Princess Juliana, St Barts and a-n-other.. the name of which escapes me. Looks the doggies but that's typical of Fly Tampa scenery ;)

.. but changing your mesh resolution fixes it or has it come back again?

I'm wondering if one of them has either left a stub in Scenery/World/Scenery or it needs one..(XXXX.ALT.bgl). Usually, removing a scenery doesn't remove the stub.. especially with freeware but also with some payware.

There are more things you could do Joe but whether any of them would fix it or leave a satisfactory end is doubtful. If you're going to visit there regularly.. I'd work a day extra this week and buy the Fly Tampa scenery ;)

I've already decided on my next payware, Dave
I'll be buying that MILVIZ 407. :agree: :guinn:

Besides my little tncm problem is just a few clicks to fix...

Cheers
