Hmm, perhaps it would be appropriate to bash up a script that figures out a sane contrail altitude based on the other weather settings/data. (not that this has anything to do with the original problem). How would one go about calculating something like that? It also occurs to me that contrails, like shadows, might be better handled by fg than an airplane definition. Of course in the interim, it makes sense to do proof of concept stuff like that in the aircraft config, just like we used to do shadows.
