Patch from Alex Perry:

Ok, I found the problem.  You're computing the dynamic pressure in
"psf" and adding it to the static pressure in "inHg" to form the
total pressure.  The attached patch is the simple fix to the source.

With that fix, failing the pitot while in cruise at 3k' will cause
the airspeed to indicate beyond redline during climb ... well before 4k'.
Thus, a pitot problem can be detected on any IFR altitude change.

Similarly, failing the static (with working pitot) while cruising 4k'
causes the airspeed to indicate beyond redline during a descent
well before reaching 3k' (during which, of course, the ALT looks fine).
Thus, a static failure can be detected before the aircraft breaks out
of the pilot tolerance range and is blatantly conspicuous soon after.

Begin work on rendering runway lights using environment maps.  The basics
are now working.  A runway light is defined by a point and a direction.  The
point and direction are combined with the local up vector to create a small
triangle orthogonal to the direction.  The two ficticous corners of the
triangle are given an alpha value of zero, the orignal corner is given an
alpha of one.  The triangle is drawn in glPolygonMode(GL_FRONT, GL_POINT)
mode which means only the corner points are drawn, and since two have alpha=0
only the original point is drawn.  This is a long way to go to draw a point,
but it ensures that the point is only visible within 90 degrees of the light
direction, behind the light it is not visible.  This is still a long way
to get to drawing a point, but we use an environement map, with the direction
vector as the normal to mimic a light that is brightest when viewed head
on and dimmest when viewed perpendicularly or disappears when viewed from
behind.

- warning, there is a bug in how the current runway light direction vector
  is calculated which will adversely effect runway lighting.  The airports
