If it were to be done, it could be limited to aircraft that it would be compatible with. Say, if the aircraft were in a certain airline livery, you could be sure of the reg position. If someone were to choose to use a non-compatible model for AI traffic, presumable that could just show its default reg. > MS have been doing the registration painting in their sims for several > years already. > Just goes to show how much attention I pay to MS FS ;-) Dave Martin _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@flightgear.org http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel 2f585eeea02e2c79d7b1d8c4963bae2d
