- Analyzes flight plans for errors.

Fixes
-----
- Fixed a bug where installing straight to the File Cabinet could result in saving bad data for document files.
- Fixed a problem validating sound configuration files. Some perfectly valid WAV filename statements were being incorrectly reported as missing.
- Fixed a problem in the Addon Removal Wizard where pressing Finish without first visiting every step resulted in no action.
- Fixed a problem in Work With Addons where if you selected a certain individual addon file when the addon was in the File Cabinet, the result was an error.
- Fixed a runtime error in the View Image window when you "grabbed" a full-size image and moved it.

General
-------
- New main menu items to access the A.I. Traffic Manager, AFCAD and Traffic Tools utilities, and Traffic Tools data files (aircraft.txt, airports.txt, flightplans.txt). See the Tools menu.
- New main menu items to work with airport and facilities addons and A.I. flight plan addons. See the Addon menu.
- Improved performance of many array searches.
- When installing an addon directly to the File Cabinet no subfolder will be created under \Addit! Pro\Addons, only under \Addit! Pro\Cabinet.
- When moving an installed addon to the File Cabinet the subfolder under \Addit! Pro\Addons will be deleted.
- When reinstalling a File Cabinet addon the subfolder under \Addit! Pro\Cabinet will be deleted.
- Enhanced the performance of most ListView controls.
