flightplan.  Such aircraft are given some initial conditions that they
fly with.  They proceed on in "freeflight" mode indefinitely.  For example,
there is a refueling demo where the tanker starts at 3000', 280 kts, and
in a 15 degree bank, and then continues to orbit indefinitely.

For these aircraft with no flightplan, I have added several control nodes in
controls/flight that allow a script or menu or external application to set
heading, altitude, bank angle, and speed.  This permits some level of interactive
or scripted control over AI aircraft.
