Terraserver.homeadvisor.msn.com has aerial photographs of the US and
Alaska down to 1m resolution (though most of it is 10yrs old, for
obvious reasons). Most of the US and Alaska, at least. No, we can't get
photo-scenery for Groom Lake.
They get the photographs from USGS, but I can't find out if
Hi Guys
The other day I stumbled on the keyboard map for
FG, can't find it at present,and I noticed quite a few
keys that have not been alocated yet.
I was wondering if a block of say ten keys could be
put aside and labeled aircraft specific for things like
tail hooks, A/C doors, refueling booms
In February Erik Hofman mentioned that Robin Peel maintains a database of
airway data, for shared use between x-plane and FlightGear. I was wondering
if there's also a database of SID and STAR procedures that we could use? The
reason I'm asking is that these might be extremely useful in

A good updated version of the Scenery Tutorial is here:

Not sure why this has not been adopted on the main site.
Earlier in the year I had some success with a simple method of placing
photo scenery here are some results:

Hi. I just downloaded the new airport basic/runways files from CVS
(thanks Curt!). I noticed that KSQL is no longer in the files at
all. The airport itself still seems to exist in the real world (hehe).
Was it removed from Robin Peel's data? Or was it never there, and was

Hi. The new airport data has duplicate entries for a lot of airports.
It looks like in some cases, data for airports changed -- runways
got moved or rotated, new taxiways got added, etc. -- so an entire
new set of data for the airport went in, while the old one was still
listed. There are some
Yes, there are some inconsistancies with Robin's latest data ... many of
these have been reported, hopefully he will clean these up and do a new
db release soon.

I agree. Unfortunately, you will find that many SIDs consist of something

This thing is huge. This package comes to our attention from Paul, a student at

Thanks, sorry, didn't know these were known . . .
What is the best way (most supported, cross-platform) to turn an integer into an STL
string type? Or, even an ASCII char[]?
It seems that itoa() is not totally common.

snprintf() is in ISO C99 but not ANSI C -- you could check to see if all of
