Hi,

Just read from gdal-dev about this free and seemingly well organised data set.
Could it be worth importing the most part of the airports in the world? Because
of the new OGR driver it might be fairly easy technically.

Folks,

for those who are interested in aeronautics, I've just commited in SVN trunk a 
new OGR driver 'XPLANE' that can read aerantical data (airports, runways, 
taxiways, navigation aids, IFR intersections, airways)  from a text format 
used by the X-Plane and Flightgear flight simulators.
