| ==== Nearest fix ==== | |||
| Did you know that there are 8 different BRAVO intersections | |||
| in the database? | |||
| Until now there was no support in the code for this;  all but | |||
| one of the entries was thrown away at the lowest level. There | |||
| is a comment in the code saying that fixing this is on the | |||
| TODO list. | |||
| As for navaids (as opposed to waypoints), the low-level code | |||
| already provides support for ambiguous IDs, but the information | |||
| is not being used very wisely by the higher layers. | |||
| Code to fix these problems was offered to the community. | |||
| So far it has been completely ignored. | |||
