I agree, but for display purposes just loading a memory image of the Robin 
Peel database would probably suffice. I.e. there wouldn't be a need for 
setting up an intricate network of nodes and connections as I'm currently 
doing for the ground network. Therefore, I'm considering loading the airway 
data straight into flightgear, while preserving the networked version for a 
flightplan utility.
