I have a question about the airport data.  I'd like to create thumbnails
for airports; something like Google's staticmaps:

<http://maps.google.com/staticmap?center=-18.585178,-173.961717&zoom=15&size=240x200&key=MAPS_API_KEY&sensor=true_or_false&maptype=satellite>

Google's TOS won't let me use them outside of a browser.

I've been trying to come up with some way to generate similar thumbnails
and so far have failed horribly; at 60m pixel size the Landsat imagery
doesn't provide sufficient resolution and I can't figure out how to get a
jpeg out of the ESRI .sh? files.

Does anyone have a legal source for getting images of airports based on
the data in the index.txt file that ships with the dataset?

Thanks,

--Yan
