 From a very cursory browse of the Quick Guide to GPLv3,
 (http://www.gnu.org/licenses/quick-guide-gplv3.html) GPL3 is
 apparently compatible with GPL2, but I'm not clear if we can
 distribute a GPL3 aircraft as part of an FG distribution which is
 otherwise GPL v2.

The base package is GPL v2 or later.
I wouldn't worry too much about it since the base package that gets
distributed only contains a handful of aircraft.
