DRZI height bug

DRZI (Iferouane, Niger) is reporting as having an altitude of 2,876 ft. SkyVector charts give it an altitude of 2,162 ft.
It looks as though SkyVector is right.

It’s a common issue. I reported it for my home airfield EPWS (ca. 130 ft in the sim, 407 ft AMSL in reality). Airfield in the sim lies in a kind of depression, making approaches and take off climbs really challenging. Reported via Zendesk months ago (Spetember?), no response.
We will need to wait for a tool like Airport Editor to be able to fix such errors, without mastering the SDK. I would not count on prompt MS reaction, they have much bigger, global issues to solve (terrain spikes, srohreline glitches etc.).

Yeah, I figured it wasn’t going to be a priority for Asobo, but thought I’d report it anyway.

On the plus side, I did get to do an engine-off takeoff after I overshot the runway end and rolled down the hill at 75 kts :laughing:
