The "radius" parameter is used internally by FlightGear's AI system to determine whether an AI aircraft will fit at a parking location. The rule is that aircraft will prefer to park at the smallest possible parkings, but only at those that have a radius value (in metres) that is slightly larger than the radius value of the aircraft itself. Below is the official list of aircraft radii used by FlightGear's AI system:

Airbus

ATR

  • ATR 42: 12

Beechcraft

Boeing

British Aerospace

  • BAe 146-200: 25

Bombardier

  • Bombardier Challenger CL-604: 11
