The reset function I (hardly ever) use is bound to Shift-Esc in
data/keyboard.xml:
<key n="27">
<name>ESC</name>
<desc>Prompt and quit FlightGear.</desc>
<binding>
<command>dialog-show</command>
<dialog-name>exit</dialog-name>
</binding>
<mod-shift>
<desc>Reset FlightGear.</desc>
<binding>
<command>old-reinit-dialog</command>
</binding>
</mod-shift>
</key>
'Location | Position Aircraft (on ground)' didn't work for me at a number of
Californian airfields with the C172-3d - an external view shows the plane
tumbling around the sky like an empty plastic bag!
I also tried to position in air, which was more successful, except I wasn't
quite ready for the magneto switch being in the OFF position :�) Good job I
didn't have to get out and swing the propeller, eh?
