an Atlas- style renderer as another layer is possible, it'd also let me build the one GUI element I've been wanting for ages, a 'map' dialog box with navaids and airways overlaid, like the map UIs in MSFS / X-Plane / Fly. <ref>https://sourceforge.net/p/flightgear/mailman/message/20012110/</ref> | |||
