Hard-coded paths

Many paths are hard-coded using Aircraft/727-230. This means that the aircraft must be installed into the 727-230 directory. These should probably be changed to relative paths:
$ find . -type f | xargs grep 'Aircraft/727' 2> /dev/null

I am assigning this to myself as well, but I am a little uncertain so far, so if @sanhozay could provide me a bit more details.
this is my questions:
-
this aircraft is 727-230, so it is my understanding that it should be installed in Aircraft/727-230 , where here "Aircraft" means a collection of paths as by --fg-aircraft=$VARIABLE
-
Is the solution here,. removing
Aicraft/727-230/ for every iteration?
Example
Aircraft/727-230/Nasal
becomes
Nasal
(?)
Thanks

This is being discussed on the mailing list re the Connie, where paths have all been made relative Let's see what happens. Other aircraft, e.g. c172p-detailed have also done this.
JWocky commented
Problem is, in oldfer versions, 3.2 and 3.0, if you make ALL pathes relative, the model isn't showing up per MP anymore
sanhozay commented
OK, it looks like relative paths are not good practice:
