Reading Eric Raymond's excellent new book, The Art of Unix Programming, reminded me of the importance of programs staying quiet unless (a) they have something critically important to say (i.e. "help, I'm about to die"), or (b) the caller explicit asks them to be noisy.
Of all the programs I normally use, FlightGear is by an order of magnitude the worst offender against this rule. As a result, I've just checked in a few changes to start cutting down the noise:
Excellent. I've had a few attempts in that direction but it looks like you've done it now.
