Hi All,

It looks like this is becoming a bit of an annual tradition: With each new 
major release, we are evaluating which aircraft we wish to highlight by 
including them in the base package. Due to time constrains, we have fallen a 
bit behind with the release process this year. Nevertheless, the process is 
still in motion, and we expect a release real soon (I've mentioned a target 
date to the people directly involved, but just to keep the tension on, I'm not 
yet going to announce that publically yet :-) )

Just as a reminder: Last year's FlightGear 1.9.1 came out with the following 
selection of aircraft:

Airliner                                        : Boeing 777-200
World War II Fighter                    : A6M2  "Zero"
Small TurboProp                 : b1900d
Helicopter                                      : bo105
Small Prop                              : Cessna 172p
Small Business Jet                      : Cessna Citation X
Ultralight                                      : Moyes Dragonfly
Aerotowing Capable / Seaplane   : DeHavilland Dhc2
Omnipowerful Jet Fighter                : F-14b
Light Prop                                      : Piper j3cub
Light Twin Prop                         : SenecaII
Historic Warbird                                : Sopwidth Camel
Not of this Earth                               : UFO
Airship                                 : Zeppelin-NT


Generally, I think that this is a pretty cool selection, but a lot of aircraft 
development has been going on last year, so there are probably a few of the 
existing aircraft that we might want to swap. In particular the "airliner" has 
seen a lot of development, and I know that Syd Adam's wasn't too thrilled 
about having the Boeing 777-200 in the base package last year. 

Please note that we want to keep the selection down to approximately the same 
number as we have now (which is 14), and have each of the current categories 
represented. So, basically if one new aircraft enters the base package, an 
existing one should go. 


Let the votes begin. :-)

Cheers,
Durk
