Jack Sawyer Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 Is this normal? I've now seen quite a few posts from the new Triengen airport and haven't seen a bright white 33 and a faded 33 as shown in this shot. Is this normal? I don't have any other products besides Orbx anywhere near this area or any mesh products at all. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Friedi Gulder Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 Did you already check that with GE? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Friedi Gulder Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 Jack, yes, Triengen is photorealistic and there you see such things. We always check our tests with GE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Friedi Gulder Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 I do not know why Nick deleted his post, yes Orbx tries to make as real as possible all AddOn's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bermuda425 Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 They lenghtened the runway here, adding the displaced treshold (with the arrows) and it seems really hard to remove the paint from runways. And I dig that 747 Jack! What a lawn mower! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I dig that 747 Jack! What a lawn mower! Thanks Erik! So when a runway is lenghtened is it customary to add those arrows? Not sure. Also, I think I could have painted those old numbers away with some good oil paint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bermuda425 Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 They should have called upon you! Depending on the airport's needs (type of aircraft operating at this place, obstacles at the runway end...), some runways may be extended like this one for allow aircraft (like 747s) a longer takeoff run, while other runways may be extended without arrows, allowing landings as well, . The displaced treshold (with arrows) isn't a full fledged runway, since it's only used for taxiing, the takeoff run or landing roll-out. It doesn't support landing loads. Thus it's cheaper than extending the runway in its full form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
