Hello there DVA,
I just purchased some new Payware scenery: FSDreamteam KJFK and FlyTampa KSEA. They work great but one thing I noticed is that the sceneries are kind of displaced. For example, when I was on ILS 31L approach at KJFK, the aircraft was flying towards the terminals (fully established), leaving the runway to the right.
Also, when I was positioned on 32C for takeoff at KSEA, the Displays showed that I was off the runway towards left. Any ideas on why this happens?

Shah, i am not sure but, i think i saw a similar post to this earlier, but i think there, the new airac caused the aircraft to land on the grass beside the runway even when fully established..
Did u update ur airac or something..? But then again if the problem is with the sceneries, then no idea.. Ny PC aint yet powerful enough to put add on sceneries especially KJFK, where the default itself is a strainer...

I'm not really sure whether its the AIRAC or the Sceneries. Before, everything was fine but after installing sceneries, the problem came up. ALso, my AIRAC cycle is last month's. So its updated.

Shahzeb,
I dunno if your download was already updated, but I just checked on their website and saw there was an update with an updated AFCAD file for KSEA. Just a suggestion.

Please check the CRS dialled into the MCP matches that of that the runway displayed when viewed from View -> Map.
In case it is offset, manually alter the CRS value to what the map says, and you will see that the runway centers itself on the ND.
Can't say that this is the only reason, but this is by far the most common I have seen.
Let me know if it helps.
