I recently discovered that it is possible to fly the C172p
(and presumably lots of other aircraft) using --fdm=ufo.

This has the potential to be very useful, for instance if
you want to pose the aircraft for pictures, and for navaid
"flight check" missions.

This really ought to be documented.

Conversely the getstart manual ought to document the fact
that in most other cases, a given aircraft cannot be
switched from one FDM to another.  The manual says the
FDM is "to be chosen at runtime" but most combinations
don't work, and most users will give up before they
discover any non-default working combinations.
