This scenery is designed and placed using FSGenesis terrain mesh
and Ultimate Terrain. Default users may notice some peculiarities.
It is primarily for use with Juan Martinez' classic KATT Austin Mueller
Airport (katt_austin_mueller.zip). This fabulous scenery with its
classic control tower seemed to cry out for a downtown to support it.
However, this project will work with any scenery.
