We made a couple changes in quick succession (hopefully learning from our, well my mistakes, as I went along.) The /sim/aircraft property has been eliminated. preferences.xml <include>'s the default aircraft (c172-set.xml). If you specify --aircraft=xyz, the corresponding config file is loaded and the properties it refers to are set immediately. So any subsequent command line options will override what came out of the aircraft config file. So for instance if you want to run the YASim c310 with no panel but the hud activated (the config file might specify the panel active, but no hud) you can run fgfs --aircraft=c310-yasim --disable-panel --enable-hud Sorry for the confusion on this, as I said, we were figuring it out as we went along.
