Which airport?

Now that I can export some basic polygons from the gPoly tool, I am looking to go one little step further. I am looking for an airport that I can use as a test case to develop the tool further, since there is no better way to find bugs than while actually working with the tool on a project. In the end I will be using the tool for the EHAM Schiphol scenery of NL2000, but that airport is a bit too complex for a test airport.

See this thread on FSDeveloper for a little more background on "my requirements" for the airport. But basically I am looking for an airport that is not too complex and not too simple. And since having imagery available is a must, I am likely to end up in the US with the free USGS data available.

So let me know if you have any suggestions for a nice airport. As a side effect of using it to develop gPoly further I might even finish a scenery of it.

# gPoly status update #8

I have now chosen the airport that I will use as a test field for developing the gPoly tool. It is Marshfield

I do not use images that have copyright on them at the moment, the images I have used until now are from USGS.

As a reference I would like to show the Google or Bing images later in the tool, but these would then only be used as reference, not to export to the scenery.
