This reminds me of the first time I went to Minsk for a Congress in
1986 under the communist regime. They gave us a map, but almost all of
the important buildings were in the wrong place! But the streets were
OK. I was told that it was to confuse any potential invaders. so if one
wanted to go someplace, one had to ask a knowledgeable person to show
one where it was on the map.

No wonder the Soviet Union collapsed under its own weight (there are
those who think it was because of the Pope, and some who even think it
was because of Ronald Reagan; in fact it was because no one there knew
whether he was coming or going).

maybe Microsoft hired one of those Soviet mapmakers...

Remove bridges at http://www.planesimulation.com/

You can then restore FS2002 landmark bridges to FS2004 (USA only for
now). In ceratin cases the FS2002 custom/landmark bridges actually
match the road data (aligned)in FS2004 better!(someone mentioned VTP
points or coastline overlays) The probelm may be that autogen can't
properly make the elevation adjustments from one vtp point to another
and has no "sense" of what road it belongs to. So, weird cyborg
autogen bridges occupy the environment sometimes.
