FlightGear currently uses these properties to set up the aircraft's initial situation :

/sim/presets/airport-id - The ICAO identifier for an airport waypoint, such as "KJFK" or "EGLL". See also the runway property. An airport identifier takes precedence over vor-id , ndb-id , or fix , but is overridden by latitude-deg and longitude-deg .

/sim/presets/airspeed-kt

/sim/presets/altitude-ft - If this property has a value greater than -9990, then FlightGear will use it to set the initial altitude MSL, unless the glideslope-deg property is also set.

/sim/presets/carrier

/sim/presets/fix - The identifier for a fix or intersection of some kind. All other waypoints take precedence over a fix. This property should be renamed to fix-id .

/sim/presets/heading-deg - The aircraft's initial heading in degrees. FlightGear may also use this property to select a default runway in some situations.

/sim/presets/latitude-deg - If an explicit longitude and latitude are supplied, FlightGear will use that; otherwise, it will look for an airport-id , vor-id , ndb-id , fix , and then finally default to KSFO if nothing else is available.

/sim/presets/longitude-deg - See latitude-deg.

/sim/presets/mach

/sim/presets/ndb-id - The identifier for an NDB waypoint, such as "OW" or "YSH". An NDB takes precedence over fix.

/sim/presets/onground - True if the aircraft should start on the ground, false otherwise.

/sim/presets/parkpos

/sim/presets/pitch-deg

/sim/presets/roll-deg

/sim/presets/runway - The name of a runway, such as "22" or "11R", for an onground start or an initial approach path. This property makes sense only with the airport-id property.

/sim/presets/speed-down-fps

/sim/presets/speed-east-fps

/sim/presets/speed-north-fps

/sim/presets/speed-set

/sim/presets/trim

/sim/presets/uBody-fps

/sim/presets/vBody-fps

/sim/presets/vor-id - The identifier for a VOR waypoint, such as "YOW" or "ART". A VOR takes precedence over ndb-id and fix .

/sim/presets/wBody-fps
