Nice, but there's a discrepancy - the program reports LAX to ATL to be 3771 miles, while iflightplanner claims 1686 nm or about 1940 statute miles.

-- quick fix replace the Los Angeles LALO sequence with: 
{"Los Angeles, CA USA",	34.0522, 118.2437}   
-- renders 1931.788 miles or 1679 nmi from Atlanta to Los Angeles. 
-- I will recheck all LALO sequences and update the LALO sequence if needed 
-- perhaps I should use nautical miles instead of miles in the routine
