I'd say /usr/bin/ is a common place for the binaries on Linux
distributions (often used for SuSE- and RedHat-packages). $FG_ROOT
often belongs into /usr/share/FlightGear/ or /usr/lib/FlightGear/ (as
for recent SuSE distributions).
In order to comply with common practice on commercial Unices
(FrameMaker, Acrobat, OpenOffice, Firefox, Fore ATM drivers, Sybase as
examples) I decided to get along with /opt/FlightGear/bin/, .../data/
at least on Solaris and IRIX (and on Linux and FreeBSD as well, in
order to not confuse myself  :-)
