* On a G400 card with lots of memory, I'm getting 4fps out-the-box.
  This is down from the high 20s previous versions.  It improves
  to 14fps if I get rid of the Textures.high directory temporarily.
  Thus, the decision making for texture sizing could be better.

* Anybody who just blindly downloads it and tries it will immediately
  throw it away; 4fps is basically unflyable for a novice non-pilot.
  Can we just notice that the system has been below 10fps for a second,
  pick a highres texture at random and force it down to lowres,
  wait a second and repeat ... until the framerate gets over 10 again?

* The default model ("v" key) is still the blue-and-yellow glider.
  Given we're pretending to be a C172 from the box, this is odd.

Everything else seems to work as expected, for better or for worse.
