Route information box

It seems that the route field for flight plans is limited to 180 characters?
This is really not enough for some long haul routings, so is it possible that this field could be increased to say 256 characters?

Unrelated question, the ICAO for Denpasar [Ngurah Rai - Bali Intl] is given as WRRR in the airport database. Although this is an alternative, the more normal code is WADD/DPS.
Could this be amended?, or would that cause problems for other users, given that FS uses the identifier currently listed.

Joe or Konrad will have to respond to part one, however on part two -

No. The database is setup to Default FS2004, as it is for all airports. As such, since WRRR is the ICAO given in FS2004, that will be what it must remain in FSAirlines. We must do this as we do not wish to require people to update scenery to fly operations if they do not wish to.

The maximum length for Routes is now 512 character, hope that's enough.
