And that sounds good to me!  :-)
Is there any information in the current parking.xml files that
wasn't extracted from apt.dat.gz? Would be easier to switch if
not. (Although later, custom additions to an airport file should
survive a new extraction script run.)

Yes, that would be a pain, and another not so good design decision.
I just wanted to start with something that doesn't tear down the
AI/Traffic system.
