Does MSFS Support Gravel Runways?

Discussion Hub Airports

Good morning forum,

Just wondering if there are actual gravel runways modelled within the sim?

I have been flying into a few airports that have them but they either seem to be depicted as paved or grass instead of gravel.

Thanks.

Mornin’. I haven’t seen any. How would you expect them to be modeled, basically just a new type of runway texture?

Yes, sorry I guess texture would be the better word for it. I can see on the charts (and know from landing in real life) they are gravel but the textures either come up as grass fields or fully paved.

In the world map there are filters for different runway types. It would be neat to have gravel runways in there, and perhaps even different ground physics for takeoff and landing.

Hey @skypilotYTS. I moved you post here to the #self-service:scenery category where this type of question should be asked. I also added the “airports” tag to help with searching.

Thanks, I had taken a look to where it should go but missed this one.

Thanks.
