I do, I've been the first real user of the "xplane" driver in GDAL - except from Even himself :-) BTW, I didn't say I "don't want any 850 centerlines as a base for this". I just wanted to make clear that there's a trap hiding because you can't rely on v8.50 centerlines being topologically reasonable - simply because there's no constraint enforcing proper topology. Ask OSM folks about the big surprise they experienced when they first tried to build routing on top of their road network. It's the same with v8.50 centerlines. If you'd like to develop automated creation and maintenance of ground networks in PostGIS on the basis of X-Plane v8.50, then please negotiate with Durk and go ahead - you know how the database works.
