This update fixes terrain elevation synchronization issues when arriving at Rome Fiumicino Airport (LIRF).
Previously, using the APPROACH option from the Sim Time Bar could position the aircraft before the destination terrain and airport elevation data had fully loaded. This could cause the aircraft to land above the runway surface. Some Rome city buildings could also remain suspended in the air after the final terrain data was loaded.
Changes
Fixed aircraft landing above the runway when using the Sim Time Bar APPROACH function.
Improved synchronization between destination terrain, airport elevation, and aircraft positioning.
Reset outdated runway elevation data after long-distance relocation.
Repositioned Rome city buildings when the final terrain data becomes available.
Improved elevation stability for long-distance arrivals and approach shortcuts.
