I like that idea, although I'd imagine the variety of setups running Flightgear is enormous! I also currently think that Flightgear 'spec' is in need of a re-evaluation, depending on the desired eye-candy level of the user. Perhaps a minimum spec "to get it running" is useful, plus a "desired minimum" to allow 3D clouds and other eye-candy would be useful, since the new features can really tax even newer hardware... I'm running an Athlon64 3000+ with 512 MB, and a 256 MB FX5700 gfx card. I run fgfs at 1280x960 windowed, with eye-candy up to the max. 4x9tap FSAA and 8x aniso +tex sharpen. Running the thunderstorm scenario will drop framerate below 20 but usually 20-30fps is the order of the day...
