(USA) US/Mexico "airspace" (boundary) files available

For those of you who fly in the southwest USA, I have created a new
airspace file for the US/Mexico border:

OpenAir format: http://www.justsoar.com/public/opena...ico_border.txt

SUA format: http://www.justsoar.com/public/sua/mexico_border.sua

As usual I have some technical notes to help you sleep:
* SUA (Tim Newport-Peace) supports a BOUNDARY type, but my test
applications (primarily SeeYou) (1) expect the points of all airspaces
to be a closed polygon and (2) do not support an explicit "boundary"
type.
* To address (1), I created points south of the border to create a
real (closed) polygon. It looks odd on a map display but does the job
nicely.
* To address (2), I encoded the airspace as "Prohibited".

Also, I now have a tool that translates SUA airspace files into
OpenAir (txt) format. I used this tool to create the .txt versions of
the above US/Mexico border file and the Luke AFB SATR (see
http://www.justsoar.com/public/luke_satr/). If you have an airspace
file that needs translating you can email it to me and I'll zap it for
you.

Go fly
