At Peter Dowson's site, there is a program called Makerunways.exe. It extracts runway and airport data from the sim. It produces several files, all but one are xml, csv, or text files, which I can figure out how to read. The one file that is not a text file is the one I'm interested in. It's a binary file called airports.fsm. This file is, apparently, a database of airports. That's what I want. But how to read the file? What is it? How does one access it? I posted this question on the support forum over there and got "didn't you ****?" Which I did. The "FM" says "this is a binary airports database used by FS_Meteo, at present after re-naming to Runways.rws", which is of no help. Does anyone here know how to read this "fsm" file? Or, ok, after you rename it to "airports.rws", does anyone know how to read that one, lol?
