My point though, is that you only have to change one file -
preferences.xml. If this is such a big deal for everyone, then it should
be changed in CVS as well. Having planes override people's personal
preferences is *not* the answer.

Brake settings in a flight *simulator* are a personal preference, not
part of an aircraft. They belong in the preferences file, not the
aircraft file.

Not everyone is going to agree on whether brakes should be applied at
startup. If you put this in the AC file then you are guaranteed to annoy
someone no matter what setting you choose. If you leave it for
preferences.xml and educate people how to use their preferences file
(which is really not that hard) then everyone can be satisfied.
