NZIR Runway/Taxiway Issue

iPad Air (3rd Generation):
iOS 15.6.1:

I received a level one violation on 26NOV22 @ approx. 0720 UTC for attempting to takeoff runway 11 @ NZIR. It appears the runways are designated as taxiways and will not allow users to takeoff without receiving a violation for speeding on a taxiway. I assume this applies to landing as well but I did not attempt. I am unsure if other Antarctic airports are affected or not. I can provide a replay upon request, if needed. Thank you.

Hello,

This is a known issue and will be fixed soon:

Speed issue while taking off at NZIR

Hello there! Earlier today, I decided to fly out of the brand new 3D McMurdo Station Ice Runway (NZIR) using a Boeing 777-200ER, but a strange situation happened. First of all, have to say that I found odd that the runways and apron area are so far away (about 6.5 NM) from the ‘blue point’ that indicates the airfield location. [IMG_7115] When I was trying to takeoff on 11, the real issue happened: as I reached speed over 35 knots, I got two speed warnings (?!), even though I was inside run…

If you received a violation please PM @appeals
