For those people who enjoy this kind of challenge (I don't have time):
If someone has (or will have) a script for making a Knoppix style CD of FGFS,
I think the capability is directly relevant for teaching/instructional use.

The CD, when starting FGFS, might load a default configuration and then
give the user the option of running the sim with an automation sequence.
Ideally, the sequence should be easily replaced if the CD is re-burned.

Around the USA, Aviation Safety Counselors give safety related talks
to pilots and AMTs as part of the FAA's Wings program.  While the materials
for the presentation can be generated from scratch, it is usually easier to
take advantage of existing videos and other materials.  We could provide
such materials, in the form of an FGFS LiveCD with such a scripting file,
to both assist in the talk and to enable attendees to practice at home.

While I don't have time to work on the CD image, I'd be happy to make up
scripts so FGFS can be used in a Wings presentation, eligible for credit.
Pilots who take part in Wings need to attend at least one 2-hour session
every year.  I'm sure that, with the progress the project routinely makes,
we'd have no trouble creating at least one presentation topic every year.
