KSFO missing

Located an aircraft at KSFO for a flight this evening, only to discover the aircraft was properly positioned at the gate - only the entire terminal at KSFO had vanished! The apron is there, and the static and AI aircraft as well - just the building is missing. This is in FS9. San Francisco aerial photo is checked in the scenery library, and the San Francisco .bgl is in the Scenery library, so I'm not sure what's going on here. Is there a good FS9 freeware scenery for KSFO - something modern and post-Cal Classic?
 
Generally, the components that make up the stock airports are contained in a few different bgl files that share a common number with different two letter prefixes. For instance, everything that makes up the AFCAD type data is in one file, the buildings are in another. The AFCAD data for the stock KSFO is in AP915180.BGL, which you'll find if you open the airport in AFCAD and check the properties. In my setup, there are a total of ten bgl's with the same number. Check to see if you have all of these. (The easy way to do it is to search the main Scenery folder for *915180.BGL.)
