William - I too have trouble getting scenery from randdtechnologies.com, and 
usually use the partial mirror at 
ftp://ftp.ihg.uni-duisburg.de/Mirrors/www.randdtechnologies.com/Scenery/

For what it's worth, here is an ftp session with your site from this morning:
[Jonathan@shackleton-1400 Jonathan]$ ftp
ftp> open ftp.randdtechnologies.com
Connected to ftp.randdtechnologies.com (24.117.66.173).
220 ProFTPD 1.2.5rc1 Server ready.

ftp> cd fgfs

   {time passes ... }
ftp: connect: Connection timed out
ftp> bye
221 Goodbye.
[Jonathan@shackleton-1400 Jonathan]$
If you've got the time it might be interesting to know what your logs say for 
this session - my IP address (today :�) is 62.31.92.212.  This is a GNU/Linux 
RedHat 7.3 workstation.

An equivalent session with duisberg (edited highlights...) looks like this:
ftp> open ftp.ihg.uni-duisburg.de
Connected to ftp.ihg.uni-duisburg.de (134.91.82.10).
220 ProFTPD 1.2.7 Server (ftp.uni-duisburg.de) [crimson.ihg.uni-duisburg.de]

Happy to test and check further if I can help.
