I suggest that all aircraft on the ground should always appear white on the map, no matter the airport's elevation. Right now, at some airports that are located higher above sea level, like Milan Malpensa or Luxembourg, planes on the ground don’t appear white. Instead, they show up in yellow or orange tones, as if they were already flying. This happens because the color system is based only on altitude, not on whether the aircraft is airborne or not. But this can be confusing, especially for people who do virtual spotting or want to clearly see which planes are on the ground and which are in the air. That’s why I think the color white should be used for all aircraft that are still on the ground, even if the airport is at 1,000 feet or more. Then, once the plane starts to take off and lifts off the runway, the color can gradually change depending on its altitude, just like it does now. This would make the visual experience much clearer, cleaner, and more realistic. I believe it’s a small but important improvement, and we plan to implement this change to make Elevatex even better.

Your aircraft is the only one that appears white(unless you change it in accessibility). Our team can discuss this, but it may bring about some complaints.
