// Edit by Rob, March 17 2011, V1.1 for FSX (compared to FS9 V1.1):
// - Default FSX G-limits adapted (Geometry section), to avoid Overstressed crashes.
// - GPWS function disabled (GPWS section), to avoid unwanted GPWS callouts during VTOL
// - Parasite_drag and adapted (flight_tuning section), to obtain FS9-like speeds
// - Smoke coordinates adapted (smokestystem section), to FSX syntax.
// - Gear_system_type (contact_points section) must be 3 in FSX, to operate WaterRudder (LandingLights extend/retract)
// - New Camera views:
// - Pilot View, new VC view with better zoom and avoiding unwanted DynamicHeadMovement
// - Tailplane view
// - Landing view, to aid with landings
// - Bay view
// - Larger wingspan for better aligned vertix effect
// - Increased fuel consumption
