The other day I was putzing around in my 744 and saw the marginal weather at KMEM. Flight was fine and I expected to have to hunt for the runway. So, imagine my surprise when there WASN'T a runway!! No concrete whatsoever!! These snaps show that everything else appears normal, just no taxiways, runways or ramp! My question for ya'll is does anyone have any idea what the cause could be? My only scenery addons are RDU, ATL, JFK, LAX. Not MEM. This is the first time I've seen this complete absence of concrete, though I have seen some sceneries ground effects shimmer or disappear with different look angles. Thanks, Merry Christmas and Happy New Years!!
Cheers!!

Hmm... I'm no expert, but that looks like a texture issue. Is it default scenery?

Yup, default FS9.1 scenery. Only other sceneries are ATL, JFK, RDU. I'll try it again here today to see if it's still like this. Thanks!
Cheers!!

Flight Simulator is trying to show what Memphis will look like after the Apocalypse.
Make sure FS is set to a date BEFORE January 1st, 2012.
But on a lighter note...
You may have to do a fresh re-install to fix a problem like that.

"Flight Simulator is trying to show what Memphis will look like after the Apocalypse."
Or when DL pulls NW out because of the merger. I honestly think the MEM HUB will go. They'd might as well demolish the terminal building, except for some of the C gates and Delta's A gates.

I agree James...
But Fedex will still be there in full force, so it won't just disappear.
A few Scaretran flights here and there...
