1) That is a correct observation, there are duplicate fixes.  That
 includes named waypoints, VORs, et cetera.

2) This is *not* a bug in the database.  Complaining to Robin about 
 it would be a step in the wrong direction.

3) Real-world pilots and real-world navigation instruments resolve
 the ambiguity by choosing the _nearest_ one of the possibilities.

4) This *is* a bug in the stock version of the FGFS code, in the
 sense that it is not smart about duplicate fixes.

5) This bug was fixed eons ago in the Sport Model.  See item 31 on
 the list at
