=== EBBR (Brussels) airport project ===
''It's all about work in progress stuff, and stuff not directly available into the fgfs tree (nor terragear). But of course, it's licenced under GPL v2 and it's goal is to be included into the fgfs tree, or at least stay GPL'ed. If you are curious you can look at the work in progress which is in the git here https://gitorious.org/dvanmosselbeen/flightgear-custom-scenery''
Due it's proximity, the EBBR project includes EBBR, Brussels, EBGB (Grimbergen), EBCI (Brussels South) and some more little stuff here and there around Brussels. As we should recognise, Belgium isn't that big. The EBBR airport is a big, well organized, high traffic airport and also a key airport in Europe. The EBBR is a simple, but efficient airport with lot's of other little cool to-visit airfields around there. It could be a nice place for some touristic trip with a little aircraft.
There is also a hidden bonus at papillon81's git repo (https://gitorious.org/papillon81/flightgear-custom-scenery/), improved terrains based on OSM data. This is really a must have! This will includes the highways, rivers and much more accurate elevation and urban data. It just improve the overal graphics and it just looks amazing with this data!
Howto?: Copy at least the tree Terrain/e000n50/e004n50 into the tree of the ebbr project. That's it!
Have fun and see you soon hanging around EBBR
