Hi all,

The BNG (British Natial Grid) based on the airy Ellipsoid but GDAL did not know 
this parameter.


+proj=tmerc +lat_0=49 +lon_0=-2 +k=0.9996012717 +x_0=400000 +y_0=-100000 +ellps=airy +datum=OSGB36 +units=m +no_defs
Probably, gdal does not know this parameter:  +ellps=airy

Hello,

You don't need to specify the ellipsoid, because it is already contained in the datum definition :

proj -v +proj=tmerc +lat_0=49 +lon_0=-2 +k=0.9996012717 +x_0=400000 +y_0=-100000 +datum=OSGB36 +units=m +no_defs
#Transverse Mercator
#       Cyl, Sph&Ell
# +proj=tmerc +lat_0=49 +lon_0=-2 +k=0.9996012717 +x_0=400000 +y_0=-100000
# +datum=OSGB36 +units=m +no_defs +ellps=airy
# +towgs84=446.448,-125.157,542.060,0.1502,0.2470,0.8421,-20.4894
