This discussion started on flightgear-devel but it belongs over here.
CC'ing Ralf directly because it's been a few weeks and this could get
lost a few pages back in a threading mailreader.

I hadn't been back to look at this in a while because it wasn't
urgent to me -- I was able to do what I needed to do (check
airport layouts generated by TaxiDraw) without fixing this problem.

But I just built this tile again, using the procedure described in

http://cvs.terragear.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/viewcvs.cgi/*checkout*/www/docs/sc=
enery-tutorial/fg-scenery-tutorial.html?rev=3D1.3&cvsroot=3DTerraGear-0.0

which is *almost exactly* as you say above:  hgtchop, then terrafit, then
genapts, then tgvpf, then fgfs-tools-server/fgfs-tools-client to build
the tile.  Everything is the same except fgfs-tools-server/fgfs-tools-client
instead of fgfs-construct, which you refer to but which I don't see in the
docs.  Anyway, proceeding as I do above, once again the airports are at
sea level, in pits compared to the surrounding terrain.

Are the docs out of date, and fgfs-construct is what I should be using?
If so, are there docs for that I haven't yet seen?  What's the syntax?

Cheers,
