OK.  Done.

Done.

I didn't like the "Other details" legend myself.
Now there's a blank line there, to separate the offset
from the other details, which I agree is an improvement.

Done.  I figured out a smarter way to work around the $#!+ browsers
that refuse to respond to the text/plain mime-type correctly.
Now there is
  http://www.av8n.com/fly/fgfs/location-in-air.xml.htm
which is googlable and perusable, paired with
  http://www.av8n.com/fly/fgfs/location-in-air.xml
which is cleanly downloadable.

7')  and remove the gory details section.

Yeah, soon.  It's still useful to me, and presumably to other

Now that you've seen it, it's served its purpose.
I'll delete it in a day or two, if no controversies crop up.

There's a lot of stuff there that should be in user-level documentation
somewhere.  But I'm new around here, and I can't figure out where to
put it, or how.  I was unable to find any mention of this popup in the
existing user documentation.  Suggestions, anyone?
