Hi stuart and Jaroslav,
thanks for the aircraft page feedback!

Oops, that's a bug :-)
Actually, I have two versions of the script. The other is at
http://flightgear.byethost31.com/wordpress/download/download-aircraft (don't
mind the layout, that was just another test, but I'll convert it to the current
layout). That one has functional keyword search, but the rating filtering is
slightly confused. I'll mix both scripts and then we should end up with a
working example.

That's not an issue. The script can already deal with nested -set files (eg.
all Emmanuel's "-base.xml" aircraft are parsed fine). The only real issue that
we have right now is how to filter on a per -set.xml base.
We provide the downloads on a per-directory base. This was never a real issue,
but now it is, because one directory can contain aircraft with different
ratings. At the moment I show all these as individual aircraft, so some
aircraft in the list link to the same download package (eg. 777-200, 777-200ER,
777-200LR)...
Ideas are welcome. I've been unable to come up with a good solution so far.

It may be interesting to aircraft developers. If you want something to work on,
you'd be looking for low rated aircraft. I've left it in to show what's
possible, but maybe we should indeed leave it out. It may confuse new users.
