that looks like it might be this shared object: 
https://scenery.flightgear.org/models/1209 Ptite_zonesol.xml... looking at the 
files, i see words that appear to be French... putting that file name into 
Google Translate gave me "small sunny spot" from French...

looking at the object and this descriptive file name, i suspect there's some 
sort of light there... the xml does things based on the time of day... i suspect 
the object isn't invisible... only that you might not notice it during the 
day... it looks to be a "lighted pavement tile" piece...

the collision may be that it is placed higher than that craft likes... lower 
might cause z-fighting issues? idk, that's a guess before 1st c0ffee...

i'm not sure but there may be a way to set "no collision" on it? i know we can 
set "no shadow" on things but can we control if collision is on? that might be 
the thing to do... this object is used in at least 27 places according to the 
above link's "Browse objects using this model" link just below the author's name...
