I don't know.  Most users won't install more than 20 or 30 aircraft
(if my MSFS experience is anything to go by), and there are many
different ways to classify aircraft.  I prefer an info.xml file in
each directory with all the classifications, so that we can eventually
list all Cessna aircraft, all single-engine aircraft, all
piston-engine aircraft, all aircraft with a gross weight under
12,500lb, and so on.


All the best,
