[Not a Bug]Route map not showing: Possible cause?

Hey,
I've noticed that routemaps sometimes don't show, be it in airline routemaps, or airport ones.

This happened to me in last round, and it is happening now in LHR

First, i thought that GCM had trouble with bigger maps, or had a maximum on routes, but i might have discovered the problem. When I right-clicked and clicked "See Image", GCM tells "Unknown Airport Code: LLR" Which is Llanbedr Airport, and it seems that it is not loaded into GCM...

Internet explorers link length does not allow for more than 600-700 routes, Firefox can handle longer links which allows for 1000-1100 routes. As long as all airports are in GCM's database off course. I had 1700 routes last round IIRC.

There are a large number of airports missing from the GCM that are in the Airline Mogul database, as a result it may prevent the route maps from showing. There are also issues with browsers as Scandalian pointed out.
