No terrain flickering here either, however, I do have the usual Mac issue of the clouds flickering. That occurs with all the terrains. Maybe someday iEN will come up with a fix for that.
I have noticed on some of the fields when on the runway with ac and at spawn points with gvs that there is a rendering issue leaving white patches in the tiles.

Puffy clouds flicker in both versions I think. Same with clutter and its worse when you have mountains or hilly country. Since both puffy clouds and clutter are not the same on each frontend we dont use them in the terrains. Not sure if you noticed by mspiro has placed a fair number of trees near airstrips so if you run into those you will crash.

I am not seeing any roads in the Solomons terrain. Where are they located? Maybe there is a glitch in the MAC version.

There are no roads per se in Solomons but the airfields are all road tool objects. If you can see the runways and taxi ways the mspiro built then everything is good. Roads are a bit of an issue as they is still debate if they cause FPS issues. Around the tac fields in the ETO and the Tobruk terrain players have reported FPS issues in the past that toggling off the roads seem to fix. Crimea is supposed to have lots of roads and railways to help navigation in it but that will have to wait until this build is corrected.
Robin did you try taking off from the seaplane base at 54? Its SP2 and you have to lift off before the ship facing you.

I tried to lift off at 54 and it worked. Only the SP1 was available on my map. The spawn point was on the water, but I gained enough airspeed to lift off. I used the Spit Vc as the test plane. Taxiways and runways are all there., so the roads feature works well.

Good ack testing Muzz. I will try and see if there is another place higher to place them on the DDs.
Will double check the issues, I thought I fixed the previous ones but maybe didnt export.

Continuing with Bougainville... F7 - NW end of rwy sfc ends about 20 feet before end of rendered rwy. rwy sfc is about 6" above rendered rwy. "Bump" as you taxi over the transition. F15 - SP 3 & 4 are below the rendered ground level. SP 1 & 2 are about 15 ft above ground level. Rwy sfc is below ground at NW end of rwy, and about 15 ft above ground at the SE end. Slow transition, with the rwy sfc being even with the rendered ground level about 1/2 way down the rwy. Aircraft attempting to land on the SE end of the rwy will crash into an invisible wall. This would also affect GVs operating near the field. F34 - Rwy sfc about 3 ft above rendered ground level. All SPs 3 ft above ground. A/C attempting to land at either end of the rwy hit the invisible "wall" at crash. F14 - object F014AD012:ammodump is floating about 1 foot above the other boxes. F9 - north rwy, east end - tree in the approach path! TR025 F36 - NW end of rwy, last 50 yds or so under the rendered ground level. SP 3 & 4 2-3 ft below ground. SE end of rwy, tree in the approach path! TR016 F29 (Seaplane) - super sticky grass. Unable to t/o after taxi to water (L/G failure) Neither the IJN nor the USN static CVs can be hit. Torps, bombs, gunfire passes through. When attempting to land, aircraft descend nicely through the flight deck, but explode nicely when contacting the sides of the ships.
My testing complete pending release of updated version of terrain. Cheers! <S>

Only thing I can think of is the tower is at a different height than the field which causes problems with the bounding boxes which we need to prevent sticky grass. The areas should be level but maybe I need to go back and check in levellar.
