JSBSIm does fine on its own by using a runway elevation (or scenery elevation, 
or whatever) of zero - assuming sea level operations only, for now. JSBSim 
defaults to sea level in standalone mode. We have to default somewhere. If 
FlightGear wants us to follow them to somewhere and fly from there, how else 
can we get the runway/scenery elevation except from FlightGear?? It's a two-way 
street; FlightGear has to tell us about the world it is simulating (the scene 
it is showing and where in the world it is). We can do the rest.

Maybe I am unclear on what you are saying that FlightGear does and doesn't do. 
Am I missing the point (I haven't had my morning coffee, yet, so maybe I am)?
