Auckland airport in real life does not have 23R/5L so in a recent update the team took out the runway to make it resemble Auckland in real life.

It isn’t there in real life so it’s taken away in IF :)

As they said above, the runway that IF had is actually a taxiway, it’s used only when there’s an emergency on the main runway, or the other one is under maintenance.

Sorry to break it to you that runway was not actually a runway but a sneaky taxiway in disguise. You were using a taxiway all this time lol.

So wait, did the airport editing team confused it with a taxiway originally?

Yes they did. Guessing because xplane default made same mistake.
