d6277068f5 (first commit, partly a low-risk thing to sanity check my setup)
Add a helper predicate to FGAirport to encapsulate the common 'does this
airport have a suitable runway of at least xxxx ft?' query. Also add a
FGPositioned filter built on the predicate, and a 'closest airport' helper.

ed1369bd8a Stuart BUCHANAN: fix METAR cloud interpolation
"I've managed to fix this by differentiating rebuilding the 3D layers
(e.g. due to METAR updates) from rebuilding the entire environment (due to a
change in scenario)."

6fa20b5903 revert to using a cached list of aircraft -- scanning the Aircraft/

otherwise. Updating the aircraft.list is now easier, though: Just

c7b896c8c6 Stuart : The attached patch
reverts one of my changes which ensured that the 3D clouds were updated with
METAR. Unfortunately this had the side-effect of over-writing the environment
properties, and therefore nuking the interpolation work.

b0b4ab5003 Stuart Buchanan :
Attached is yet another 3D clouds patch, to fix the following:
1) The 3D clouds were not modified by the cloud coverage, due to some problems with osg::Switch
2) METAR changes to cloud coverage were not obeyed.
3) Making changes via the Cloud dialog had no effect unless 3D clouds were toggled.
4) Cloud cover was too sparse.
5) 3D Stratus clouds caused performance issues on some hardware (fixed by removing 3D stratus from cloudlayers.xml - it will now be a 2D layer).

35f7f55507 Csaba/"Jester" and /me: since a few weeks the property browser had
displayed garbage in the title line if one left a directory. Jester
spent a lot of time finding the cause: a bug that must have been
there since ... forever: fgfs reported to PUI the string addresses
as returned by SGPropertyNode::getStringValue() without considering
that this address isn't valid after the next write access to that
node! It's almost a miracle that it worked so well for so long,
despite that issue. (I also used to opportunity for some more
cleanup -- so I'm to blame for any newly introduced bugs, and
also for reverting some of Jester's cleanups. :-)

6a154a59e1 Stuart :
- Removes the cloud type re-use code - I think they aren't worth the graphical artefacts that they cause in light of Tim's improvements
- Changes the transparency of the clouds. Previously, the clouds were transparent at 0m distance, opaque at 200m, then gradually more transparent to the fog limits. This meant they were generally quite transparent. Now, they are opaque from 200m to 15km, then become transparent at 20km. A side effect of this is that the current textures could probably benefit from being made slightly transparent to improve the blending of the sprites against each other.

69b2c0b697 James Turner :
Here's a patch which refactors the 'plain' GPS code into a slightly
more manageable structure - i.e breaks the large update() method into
various sub-functions. I've tested the patch with B1900d, and things
seem to work as expected, but if anyone experiences GPS weirdness
after this is committed, of course please report it.

The motivation for this was helping me learn the code - I've planning
some changes in this area, and splitting up the logic will hopefully
make that task easier.

e2bf85e67e James Turner : this patch
- updates how filtering is done on the various FGPositioned query functions - both spatial and ident-based.
- updates the KLN-89b / DCLGPS code to use FGPositioned for all Navaid/Airport queries.

me:
Add few include directives in globals.cxx to avoid such MSVC warning messages :
deletion of pointer to incomplete type 'FGAirportList'; no destructor called
deletion of pointer to incomplete type 'FGNavList'; no destructor called
deletion of pointer to incomplete type 'FGTACANList'; no destructor called
deletion of pointer to incomplete type 'FGFixList'; no destructor called

9721d7811f This provides the following enhancements & bug fixes
- Fix the chequer-board bug.
- Add proper cloud coverage function - so scattered clouds are now truly scattered.
- Add real-time control for visibility range.
- Use a limited set of clouds rather than generating a completely new Geode for each cloud. This saves sorting and display time.
- Add controls to Rendering dialog to allow fine-tuning of the number of sprites, cloud visibility and the number of different types of cloud.
- Add some variance to the sort back-off to avoid all clouds being sorted at the same time.
- Pack attributes into vectors for performance
- Re-order the cloud type determination code so that if a cloud layer could either be stratus or cumulus, cumulus is used.
- Lowered the cloud level in the standard cloud configuration slightly so a cumulus layer is generated rather than stratus.

These last two mean that you should see some 3D cumuli if disabling real weather fetch.

My thanks to Yon Uriarte for his help with performance work.

f3b110e565 James Turner:
Attached patch updates the route-manager to use FGPositioned to search
for waypoints, instead of a manual airport / fix / navaid search. This
is good because it's now using the 'strictly closest' match, rather
than arbitrarily picking a distant fix over a nearby navaid. In my
case, the TLA VOR is significant to several EGPH procedures, but also
happens to be the ident of a fix a long, long way away.

Also updates the FGPositioned class to stop using Point3D, partly
because it's deprecated and partly because I had misunderstood the
interface and was using it wrong. For now, all FGPositioned distance
checks use SGGeodesy::inverse, which is accurate but inefficient. Once
FGPositioned queries are used for something on a hot path, I'll
probably store the cartesian position as well as the geodetic, to make
these checks fast.

Right now, atlas.cxx uses the following code, in
FGAtlas::gen_message(), to retrieve the ADF frequency:

static SGPropertyNode *adf_freq =
    fgGetNode("/instrumentation/kr-87/outputs/selected-khz", true);

I think it should be changed to:

static SGPropertyNode *adf_freq =
    fgGetNode("/instrumentation/adf/frequencies/selected-khz", true);
