..the 2 edits that sticks out to me, are:
http://wiki.flightgear.org/flightgear_wiki/index.php?title=Copyright_Inquiry&diff=prev&oldid=5021

...and:
http://wiki.flightgear.org/flightgear_wiki/index.php?title=Modeling_Resources&diff=prev&oldid=5020
 ,
specificly "resources that are explicitly and without doubt in the
public domain can be included without an explicit GPL statement"

...which is where I feel "MILSTD" is promoting adding "public 
domain work", _over_ adding work to FG under the GPL. 

..me, I prefer the GPLv3 ;o) ,  but this is fundamentally an issue 
of copyright law and FG policy that you FG coders should decide, 
because you guys own the copyright here.

  Scenarios always come in sets of three: 
  best case, worst case, and just in case.
