Client aircraft detection

Hi,

Can someone tell me if the client picks up which plane you are using in your sim?
So that you cannot cheat and book a flight with a certain plane and actually use something totally different in game?

Tested this and it does detect your aircraft, which is great :)

The client knows your aircraft weight and the type and number of engines. Now there is variation within a type for empty and max weight so the client allows range, but if your using two aircraft of similar size and configuration you may fool the client, but you may not get accurate results.
