I just observed something very strange (to me anyway).
I created a floating dock/pontoon and placed it in an area away from the shore.
When viewed in MSFS one side of my pontoon is partially submerged by about 0.3 meters over the length of 50 meters. (see image below).
According to what I find on the internet there is 0.08 metres curvature of the earth per 1 kilometer and so over a length of 50 metres the curvature would be 0.004 meters. Very strange.
