I'm thinking that one thing which *could* play into a solution is measuring
the Z distance between the lowest gear contact point and the CG. Once the
ground elevation is determined, the aircraft could be placed at that
altitude *plus* the previously mentioned difference. This would make sure
that each unique aircraft would be placed correctly.

Then, there's the deal with the VRP - does that play into this at all?
