I have uploaded comparison photos… one is a real world photo that captures very well how the surroundings of the airstrip looked before WU18 in MSFS, it was very realistic. The below pictures (sorry for the low quality) show how after WU18 there is now trees and a complete forrest around the runway. And overall the surrounding countryside has way more trees than before, too.

This issue is still present. Is there a chance for a fix?

Ok, so with no reply after such a long time, I take it that this bug introduced with the latest World Update will probably never be fixed. If there is any chance to get any info on this it will be much appreciated - even if it is “we won’t fix that”.
