At the time, the Golden Gate model I was using contained the following statement: In the spirit of freeware this package is released to the general public. It may redistributed as long as it is not for commercial purposes and you include this Readme file in the package. It is my understanding that "not for commercial purposes" goes against the GPL. However I have just found another X-Plane GG model which is a bit more detailed and seems unencumbered with any license or readme that I can find. I am investigating this one further.
