Thanks very much. I'll try all this stuff this evening. btw, I play on linux, I use win$ only here, at job. so I will surely use your scripts.

I downloaded somewhere surfing the web, a table with all airports codes.



Just noticed that you are on Windows. Under some sort of Unix I would have suggested to just use this to get a list of all available airports:

 apt() { zgrep "^1 " $FG_ROOT/Airports/apt.dat.gz|grep -i "$*"|sed -r 
's,^.{13},,' ; }

Can easily be used for searching, too:

 $ apt venezia
 LIPV Venezia San Nicolo
 LIPZ Venezia Tessera


My "mapsync" script will hardly work on Windows, too.





But I also need the runways one, so.. where can I get that?



It's all in fgfs' databases and you can read it all out. But that's probably a little harder on Windows. You need to decompress the *.gz files and search for the info (this may help here: http://www.7-zip.org/)





What the radio is useful for? What does it say?



Which radio?

NAV radios? -> for navigation (see http://www.navfltsm.addr.com/vor-nav.htm)
All of this should work in fgfs.

COMM radios? -> currently there's only spoken ATIS messages if you tune in
your airport's ATIS frequency (which you can get from another script that
runs on Unix/Linux only :-)
