I found an error in the forumlas I was using to do the analysis in Excel and the above list is now more accurate for that catagory. If the admin team would like a copy of the spreadsheet with all of the coorindates from GCM, please let me know and I will be more then happy to e-mail it to them. The file is about 2.5MB.

I've noticed something else. When using IE7, the route map will also disappear when the route-map URL gets to certain length. It appears IE7s URLs are only allowed to be a certain length and then it cuts them off. However it has continued to run in Firefox without this problem.

Have you ever seen something Microsoft that worked the way it was supposed to?

AHI, or Rick, please pm me a list of all affected IATA codes (where ICAO is preferable or IATA is unrecognized entirely by GC), i'll update the in-game list accordingly.

1. You may have exceeded the maximum number of flights GCM can handle or
2. You have created a route to an airport that GCM does not recognize.

If it is 1. we cannot do anything as we have no influence on GCM.
If it is 2. then have a look at the airports you have created the last routes to. When you click on view airport and do not see a map please let me know which airport it is.
