Fiddling with constants that are better in some cases and
worse in others is certainly not the solution, no matter how
"strongly" it is suggested. I wouldn't want a helicopter placed
30 m away from the edge of a helipad.
What's wrong with using a property that defaults to 5, and that
aircraft developers can set to whatever they feel like?
s|5.0|fgGetDouble("/sim/airport/runways/start-offset-m", 5.0)|
m.
