The roadsigns are part of autogen scenery, just like the road lights  Wink.
You will find them wherever you go.

If "Autogen for Scenery" control this why do I see the signs EVERY time I go there even after a "cold" start.  The pictures are of Mr Wrights 1st plane.

I do most of my "flying" in out of the way small places like LSPM and have never seen anything like this before.

One time I took off from some location inrthe Alps and was supprised to see that I was among a bunch of Hot air baloons but could never find them again???

Above my pay grade

If you want to see the pictures do this;

Select LSPM R/W 29

Go to "map" and change direction to 140 degrees.

Go to FULL screen mode and the plane Mr Wright flew will be in front of you on a road sign.

You can "slew" up close and personal to them.

What else has M$FS put out there for us to find ???

Ok I will check.

I have been surpised how accurate autogen is, for instance trees are always in exactly the same place.

Yup there are signs. Ive seen them before, they must be on every 'double-road' in FS, as is that one

Speaking of trees, I do a lot of my "flying" in valleys and have seen trees above me and sort of "in space" but have never been able to get between them and the nearest mountain. ???

Other "simmers" have seen the same thing when flying down where the snakes are and only in valleys.

Why not

I too have seen the not-so-elusive "flying trees" when flying "on the deck" in Canyonlands or the Grand Canyon.  Weird and annoying.

best,
