* Groundnets, terrain and scenery objects are independent. If you see your AI aircrafts rolling on grass or sitting on buildings and for as long as your groundnet lat.lon data is correct, consider that the airport terrain/layout may be outdated or misplaced. Similarly, Building/Object may have been placed at certain Lat/Lon but since demolished (example of JFK Terminal 3 on the right) to make space for a new taxiway as airports expand and change layout regularly. | * Groundnets, terrain and scenery objects are independent.

Make sure you have verified the data in your ICAO.threshold.xml before starting building your groundnet.
