I was going through the Ai scenarios and see that some of them are not
necessary.

Also, I've added some documentation to the other scenarios.  And I moved the
thunderstorm over San Francisco, so you don't have to take off to see it.
The files are attached.

<!-- Notes:
This scenario has a 737 takeoff from runway 28L at KSFO
and fly the Porte Departure to the south. You can change
the aircraft type by substituting another model in the
<model> tag, and you can also change the "flight plan" by
changing the <flightplan> tag. Look in the subdirectory
FlightPlans to find some that I've already defined, including
some arrivals. When an AI aircraft gets to the end of its
flight plan it deletes itself.

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!-- Notes:
The following scenario puts an aerial tanker in orbit over KSFO
at 3000 ft AGL. The tanker uses the 737 model, but you can use any
model (a KC-135 model can be found at:
http://home.comcast.net/~davidculp2/hangar/hangar.html).
The center of the orbit is actually west of KSFO, and the eastern
edge of the orbit passes over the airport. Note that AI aircraft
do not react to wind, therefore your speed and bank angle will have
to vary along the orbit since your "user" aircraft *does* react to
the wind.
I recommend using the T-38 as your airplane for four reasons: (1) it
has a radar screen which may be needed to find the tanker; (2) it
has the speed to catch the tanker; (3) it uses a JSBSim FDM, which
means it can onload fuel; (4) it has a green light added to the
instrument panel, between the fuel gauges, which comes on when you
are in the refueling envelope.
Right now the air refueling envelope is very loose, and I plan on
tightening it up in the future. Currently no aerodynamic effects
of refueling are modeled (i.e downwash, bow wave, vortices).

This scenario puts a sailboat in the bay just east

turn but not bank (i.e. will not heel). Use small
values for <rudder> for best effect.

<!-- Notes:
This scenario puts a thermal over the tower at KSFO.
The <height> tag defines the upper limit of the thermal.
AI thermals have some limitations, i.e. they don't lean
downwind, they are only cylindrical in shape, they don't
interact with the terrain or weather, and AFAIK they only
work with the JSBSim FDM. Try using the sgs233 model for
a good demonstration.
