Hi, I'm no expert in this area but isn't most aviation radio communication in the VHF frequency range? I think VHF transmissions are mostly limited to line of sight unless something unusual is going on.. See t.ex. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VHF Cheers, Anders -- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Anders Gidenstam mail: andersg(at)gidenstam.org WWW: http://www.gidenstam.org/FlightGear/JSBSim-LTA/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
