I've made an add-on for World Wind. It includes all the navaids, fixes and airports of the FlightGear database. The names only appear when you zoom down below 1Mm, ILS localizers and markers only appear below 10km. I also made some symbols, but since it is not possible to define lod ranges for them, they would have cluttered the display and probably halted World Wind. http://home.tiscali.no/rvovesen/aeronautical.rar Unpack it in the World Wind directory. Use the layer manager in World Wind to select what to display. There is no FG --> World Wind communication yet. But at least it can be used as a fancy map ;-) -- Roy Vegard Ovesen _______________________________________________ Flightgear-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-users 2f585eeea02e2c79d7b1d8c4963bae2d
