The Current X-Plane/FlightGear airport database contains _much_ more
than DAFIF. This affects not only taxiways and other airport layout -
to my knowledge DAFIF only features the runways. Robin's collection
also includes fixes to incorrect runway definitions (yes, DAFIF
definitely contains errors) as well as a huge lot of airfields that
don't show up in DAFIF at all.
Cheerio,
Martin.
