Ranga, I will leave the ascii format loader in place for now, but it is becoming increasingly 'dated' as time goes on. There will likely be some point in the future where we won't be able to move forward the way we'd want to and still preserve this compatibility. It might be worth discussing this 'offline' to see what your specific needs are and if we can find an easy path to get your local stuff updated. plib can load a variety of formats, so beyond the terrain and the airport object, you should be able add an arbitrary number of additional objects to the scene using the wavefront .obj format if you choose.
