Hi Martin No, it looks like the mapping with apt.dat data is inaccurate, at least outside the United States. I checked some airports the last days. You can not say that FlightGear or X-Plane data is accurate and the rest of the mapping world is missing the "points". It does not depend on aviation or not. A lot of runways are misplaced, and I am just asking about the reason. Maybe one of the reasons is that apt.dat is based on old analog imagery, not available anymore.
