Sheldon,

thanks for the tip. Checked it out and they list FUBAR as somewhere out 
west i.e 36N/111W area. Don't see why flts in the MD/VA area should be 
ref'ing this one.  Must be another one somewhere in this area.

Go to:

http://www.geocities.com/lh4503/ <http://www.geocities.com/lh4503/>   
<http://www.geocities.com/lh4503/>

There are four choices for flilght simulation
files.  There is a FIXES notepad in the compressed
full file.

This is probably the URL:

http://www.geocities.com/lh4503/nd11.zip 
<http://www.geocities.com/lh4503/nd11.zip>   
<http://www.geocities.com/lh4503/nd11.zip> .

DILIS seemed to be right.

FUBAR is listed.

Considering the age, I'd guess many of the GPS
fixes are not listed.

Sheldon
