I just downloaded and installed for V5 and also getting the sparks around the airport. My V4 install didnt have the issue, my mesh is set to 2m. Was a fix put out for this yet?

I've had BWI installed for a while... Not sure when. I don't fly to/from there often, however, when I did yesterday this was noticed.

I use P3D v5.

It's happening for me all over the airport. Spring/Summer season selected.

My settings are -
Level of Detail Radius - High
Tessellation Factor - High
Mesh Resolution - 2m
Texture Resolution - 7cm

I am also having this issue at most A and B gates and many of the taxiways nearer the terminals. I tried mesh setting at 2M, with not fix for this. Will there be a fix for this soon?
