Its definately a bug :-(  Unfortunately I can't replicate it - I compile
and run it on both Linux (using gcc-3.2.x where x is a number I don't know
off-hand!) and Windows and I've not had this problem.  As you say,
everything is being drawn on the airport center instead of its own center.
Its really hard to debug stuff I can't replicate - I'll have a look at the
code and try and spot something.  Do you mind if I send you a version
offline with some extra debugging output enabled?

Yes, there's various ways to kill it!  In this case you've run up against
the hard-coded limit to the number of gridlines.  Switching to UTM
projection before loading an airport, or switching to OSGB36 (UK)
projection whilst in the US is also likely to seg-fault it.  At the moment
the program is young and I'm more concerned with bug-fixes and feature
additions that affect normal operation.

Thanks for the feedback,

Cheers - Dave
