OK the startup option sound like a good idea ... Im just in the process of
trying to clean up and remove all those set files .FGRUN works here for viewing
aircraft , just not selecting airports . I know the reason , just dont want to
recompile :) .But anyway , going through the aircraft list show 3-4 identical
aircraft . Those would be mine :). AJ point me to 2 aircraft that use an
aircraft created options menu so I will do that for the time being ...
But I also like the idea of a special menu entry to hold aircaft options ... in
the future
Cheers
