And finally, I found an image of the 19R KADW runway area landing there before installing the Washington Landmarks:

And there are no buildings there at the real airport?

No, there are no such buildings there. I live near the airport and can take photos if you wish. But in no circumstance would such large buildings be that close to large runways like this. Maybe the first large building just off the edge of the runway I reference are really landing lights.

There are two locations close together in Washington Landmarks that have buildings in the middle of sports fields. One is Gallaudet University at 800 Florida Avenue NE, Washington DC and the other is KIPP College Preparatory School at 1405 Brentwood Parkway NE, Washington DC. Flight Simulator and Google Maps image are include here:

These are probably buildings that were demolished but they still exist in the vector data the sim uses. We will remove those. Thanks for the report!

Okay, I just love this Washington Landmarks addition to Flight Simulator 2020 as I was so disappointed in how DC was depicted when I first launched the sim. This addon makes all the difference in the world. Good Work!

Is it just me or does the blue taxiway lights in the Washington Landmarks airports no longer light?

Here are images of no taxiway lights within Washington Landmarks MSFS at KADW (Joint Base Andrews), W32 (Washington Executive Airfield), and KVKX (Potomac Airfield). I did not check KCDS (College Park). I had taxingway lights at KDCA (Reagan National Airport):

From the tarmac, it looks like there are no taxiway light fixtures.....

How do you uninstall this? I want to see the new default scenery and not seeing any way to remove this scenery. Please don't tell me I need to do a full reinstall...

You should simply remove the respective folder from the Community folder but I suggest making the backup to revert it a.s.a.p :P

The Washington DC Flight Sim update appear to have fix the Washington Monument, White House, and US Capitol building. But things like the WWII Memorial, Supreme Court, Library of Congress, and Mall are still subpar. The large building is even still on the Mall....
