I've looked at these and the grass textures look like green-tinted gaussian noise. The dirt runway looks quite like a filter I've seen somewhere before... ;-) It seems quite reasonable to me but it isn't quite symetrical and the X and Y join lines are visible up close. What sort of 'nice textures' are we looking for? I know this is an odd question to ask, but a lot of games and sims just can't get grass right and these are by no means the worst textures I've seen around for this sort of material. If I get some pointers to nicer textures I'll do my best to produce similar versions for use under the GPL.
