See [http://data.x-plane.com/file_specs/XP%20APT850%20Spec.pdf X-Plane data file definitions - Airport data (apt.dat) 850 version], currently used by FlightGear's official scenery which was also used by X-Plane (version 8.10 to 8.60). Currently X-Plane uses the newer apt.dat 1000 (or 10) format,<ref>[http://data.x-plane.com/file_specs/XP%20APT1000%20Spec.pdf ''X-Plane Airport Data (Apt.Dat) File Specification - 1000 Version, revised Apr 2013''] (PDF).</ref> which includes new codes to define the airport taxiway/runway network for AI/ATC. The current TerraGear parser ignores any code it doesn't understand, including these new ones. So it's possible to read and parse the latest v10.0 datafile just fine, but not all of its features are supported.<ref>{{ | See [http://data.x-plane.com/file_specs/XP%20APT850%20Spec.pdf X-Plane data file definitions - Airport data (apt.dat) 850 version], currently used by FlightGear's official scenery which was also used by X-Plane (version 8.10 to 8.60).
