I'm running KDCA Washington National MSFS and Washington Landmarks v2 on MSFS 2020 and try as I might... I cannot get the default KDCA to go away. Drzewiecki Design DCA IS showing up, but the default airport is showing through as well. Does anyone know what I need to disable to fix this issue?
Thank you,
Emerson

Re: KDCA Washington National MSFS
Please do some basic steps as below. If it does not help, please share more info (sim & scenery version) and some screenshots.
-> Clear SceneryIndexes Cache - the simulator will rebuild the indexes automatically during the next start.
-> Set the scenery priority - the MSFS Package re-order tool can move the add-on to the highest priority, which might solve some conflicts between different add-ons (for example buildings or terrain issues).
-> Isolation of conflicting add-on - go to the 'Community' folder and move all add-ons except the one suspected conflicting one to a temporary folder. You can de-activate individual add-ons or groups of add-ons and then figure out whether the conflict is solved or not.

Re: KDCA Washington National MSFS
I figured it out. I had to go even more basic than that... turns out I didn't have City Update IX installed. When reinstalling Washington Landmarks V2, it called out this, and two World Updates. I thought I had them installed, but when I verified this, I realized I had uninstalled the City update at some point. Thank you for your help nonetheless.

Re: KDCA Washington National MSFS
Hi,
The two sets of PAPI lights are intentional and correct. If you check the official airport charts, you’ll see that each one uses a different glideslope angle.
We’ll definitely look into the crash issue you mentioned, although we haven’t been able to reproduce it during our own testing. Gates with static aircraft should not be available, so could you please confirm that you don’t have another KDCA scenery installed and let us know which specific gate(s) you’re seeing this on?
Unfortunately, static aircraft can’t be removed in the Marketplace environment. That’s also why any gates occupied by static aircraft are meant to be blocked from user and AI traffic.
