I'm not sure what you did to "insert an aircraft in the xml files". Assuming
that you don't want to hack fgfs, that's what I would do: Write this into
an xml file, let's say "foo.xml":
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<PropertyList>
<local>
<foo>
<longitude-deg type="double">0.0</longitude-deg>
<latitude-deg type="double">0.0</latitude-deg>
<elevation-ft type="double">-1000.0</elevation-ft>
<roll-deg type="double">0.0</roll-deg>
<pitch-deg type="double">0.0</pitch-deg>
<heading-deg type="double">0.0</heading-deg>
</foo>
</local>
<models>
<model>
<name>intelligent aircraft (haha)</name>
<path>Aircraft/p51d/Models/p51d-jw.xml</path>
<longitude-deg-prop>/local/foo/longitude-deg</longitude-deg-prop>
<latitude-deg-prop>/local/foo/latitude-deg</latitude-deg-prop>
<elevation-ft-prop>/local/foo/elevation-ft</elevation-ft-prop>
<roll-deg-prop>/local/foo/roll-deg</roll-deg-prop>
<pitch-deg-prop>/local/foo/pitch-deg</pitch-deg-prop>
<heading-deg-prop>/local/foo/heading-deg</heading-deg-prop>
</model>
</models>
</PropertyList>
then call fgfs like so:
$ fgfs --config=/tmp/foo.xml --httpd=5501 --aircraft=ufo
For a first test you can now call this page: http://localhost:5501/local/foo
and set the aircraft's location and orientation. After that you only need to
set the properties /local/foo/* via http/telnet/nasal-script/...
