Allen submitted a new resource:

Know Bugs and Oddities with CFS2 - Know Bugs and Oddities with CFS2

This is list of know bugs and oddities with CFS2 that I have put into one place. This surely isn't all know know bugs and oddities but should cover most of the well know ones and give some ways that you may be able to fix them.

Comes as PDF or HTM.

Allen, this is great.

There are a lot more oddities for MB: For example, speed settings in MB are in knots, yet in the MISC_DATA section of an aircraft, speeds are in kilometers per hour and altitude is in meters.

Been a long time but MB will display non-freedom units to Meters by settings and changing unit of measurement?

Mixed unit of measurements
​

CFS2 is odd with its unit of measurements. The aircraft.cfg is done in Feet but for the [LIGHTS] that are Meters. Aircraft .dp files are done in Metric but for the bullet weight in the [GUNSTATIONS] are done in ounce.
