| Title | Ground Services from apt.dat |

| Supporters | |
| Status | |
| Summary | The newer apt.dat format defines routes for ground traffic. Idea is to read (if needed, pre-process the data) that and create ground traffic using this data. |
| Background | Airports are busy, not just the aircraft but also all the ground handling like baggage carts, fuel trucks, crew busses, etc. This is missing in FG, adding it would make the airport feel way more alive. |
| Details | First step would be to generate the net and make it available in a format in FG. Then make a subsystem in AI to use the net and visualize (animate). |
| Skills | C++ |
| Notes | apt.dat 1200 spec |
