Greg -- I would be interested to know how you went about creating the ground
network for your AI traffic. I have wanted to so the same for KBWI for which I
created a scenery add-on package (complete for scenery version 0.9.10, still in
progress for 1.0.0) and I was unable to get much help on the Wiki or the
Forums. A step-by-step would be amazing if it's not too much trouble. Thanks
in advance! Cheers, -R.

I therefore suspect something might have gone wrong with the formatting of
your xml file. Could there be extra whitespaces or other characters that

Good call. The problem was that I like to format XML files using leading tab
characters to indent elements. Apparently FlightGear's XML parser has problems
with tabs. When I removed all tab characters from the file
/usr/share/games/FlightGear/Traffic/QAN/737/QAN01.xml the error message went
away. I now have a Qantas-liveried 737-300 sitting on the tarmac at Tullamarine
airport[1].
When my file was formatted like this:
\t\t\t\t<port>YMML</port>
FG reported the error message:
Could not find\t\t\t\tYMML
Yes, it was tabs in the message, not spaces. The spaces must have been
converted to tabs when I copied-and-pasted the error message from the terminal
window. What is very odd is that the tab characters were outside the <port>
element. The XML parser should not have confused text (including whitespace)
between elements with the text within elements.
So, the solution is apparently not to use tabs when formatting traffic files.
This is a trap for the unwary, though. Maybe the XML parser should be updated
to include only the text within elements?
Many thanks to all who responded to my question.
Regards,
Greg Hawkes
[1] The AI aircraft now appears on the tarmac. It doesn't fly, but that's an
issue for another thread.
