Strange taxiways
« on: January 09, 2011, 11:24:29 am »
Hello!

I noticed a problem with taxiways in general aviation area: the centerline is not centered! Is it normal? Looking with google maps, it seems different.
Please look at the screenshot:

Thanks!

Was it a strange question? I think that the image speaks itself.  :P

It really doesn't. It's not very clear from your screenshot what the problem is. If you are referring to the very small misalignment between the centerline and the shadow in the below photoreal background, that's not a problem, it's not possible to have them absolutely and perfectly aligned, and it's a very minor issue.

I'm sorry if it wasn't clear, so I will write it in italian (sorry for the non italian speakers):


Quello che volevo far notare รจ che la center line gialla della taxiway non e' centrata sulla taxiway, ma e' spostata sulla sinistra. Come si vede dallo screen, la semiala sinistra del Beech Duke si trova appena al di sopra del conetto con la luce blu della taxiway. Mentre la semiala destra ne e' ben distante.
Penso che dallo screen si veda, no?

Dato che non tutte le taxiway hanno questo problema, volevo capire se si poteva fare qualcosa.
Capisco che quasi nessuno vola nella zona dell'aviazione generale, prediligendo l'area per gli aerei di linea, ma mi piacerebbe avere un vostro responso.

Grazie
