We do, of course, have a set of standard Nasal libraries under data/Nasal/. 

These were previously maintained by Melchior, who worked hard to ensure that
we didn't end up wth lots of slightly different per-aircraft functions. 
Unfortunately at
present there isn't a clear owner of this, and it really requires buy-in from 
the aircraft
developers to create generic functions and submit them rather than taking the 
easy
way out and copy-and-pasting functions from other aircraft.
