Hmm, comparing the old default.apt with the new runways.dat for KSQL, it
appears that the runway orientation has been altered to be correct now (and
presumably the position also) but that the taxiways have been left as they
were.  I can redo the taxiway positions and orientations, but not in the
next couple of weeks, which might encompass 0.9.3?  At the risk of sounding
like a luddite, can I suggest that the tile be regenerated with the old,
incorrect runway, for this release, since it looks terrible as is, it
looked great as was, it's practically the nearest destination to the
default startup, and its the location of the FG flying manual.

This is by no means meant as any disrespect to the work thats gone in to
getting the new airport data and STRM data into the scenery - I think its a
fantastic effort :-) and glitches are the price of progress, I just want to
suggest that given the importance of KSQL within the base package we could
maybe regress the runway just for this release...

IMHO of course!

Cheers - Dave
