Port Meadville KGKJ in PA USA is missing its buildings/hangers.
report to Zendesk with as much information as possible (screenshots from game/bing, location, coordinates etc), and it might be added in a future world update.
They are missing all over. Just seems logical that they would start with all the buildings at airports and then expand outward from there. We need our building at airports!

It’s not people doing this manually, it’s the AI scanning the satellite imagery to populate the world with auto-generated buildings, trees, bridges etc.
So keep reporting to Zendesk, to help them optimize the AI.

Definitely make a Zendesk report like Mort suggested. I did this for a local airport and eventually (weeks later) got an email that it’s been added to the development backlog.
In the meantime if you’re feeling adventurous you can install the SDK and place some generic buildings manually. I did that for my local airport that’s missing buildings and I’m pretty happy with the results. I followed this guide to figure out what to do. There’s some steps you can skip if you’re just adding buildings: You don’t need to create an Airport object if the game already recognizes the airport, so you can skip steps 11 and 12. You do need the polygon described in Step 13, but after that just add Scenery objects. I searched for “Hangar” in the object list and just went down the list until I found buildings I was happy with.
Good luck!
At a small airport in PA (KGKJ) there are no buildings showing. All I see is white squares on the ground. Any way to fix this, as I’d like it to be my home airport?
