-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 After some discussion on IRC (AJ pointed out that plural of aircraft is aircraft, and andy noted that <PropertyList> may be a more fg-style top node), I suggest that either change the top node to something else, or call it <PropertyList> and go the whole way and make it simgear style <PropertyList> and change subnodes to be fg compatible too.
