Is it possible as perhaps a future enhancement to Import .sua airspace files rather than the out of date FSX / FS9 data?

Do you have a definition and a source for them?

Here's a link to the files.

FYI. These work quite well with an open-source glide computer called XCSoar. I normally use this via a Virtual serial port emulator to connect with FSX FSUIPC GPS out. (Can also be networked using Pete Dowson's FSWideserver on another PC).

Being an open-source program you might be able to see how the code works (Only guessing as I am not a programmer)

Using the Airfiles in XCSoar gives an audible warning if you are about to infringe airspace.
