### Desired documentation content. Building the docs currently only checks for complete failures and errors, however there are issues that can occur that do not cause the cell to completely...
### Desired capability or behavior. The docs often use the "mixed" test benchmarks such as GwGm, FwFm, as examples. These should be phased out, as they are unintuitive and confusing...
### Description A lot of parameters in FLOPS have different behavior based on the absolute value of that parameter (for example the weights overrides act as a scale factor when...
### Desired capability or behavior. With many of our components, default values for inputs/outputs are provided that come from a variety of sources - maybe there were old GASP defaults,...
### Description Normally, if your Aviary model does not define a variable, the default value is used. In the case where your model using multiple engine types, and you do...
### Description Using a LEAPS-based mass calculation and trying to overload / set the PASSENGER_MASS, BAGGAGE_MASS, or PASSENGER_PAYLOAD_MASS, none of these will affect Aircraft.CrewPayload.TOTAL_PAYLOAD_MASS. The computations for Aircraft.CrewPayload.TOTAL_PAYLOAD_MASS happen in...
### Desired documentation content. It is hard for me to find the Override documentation page in aviary because I think of overloading or overwriting. OverRIDING doesn't come when I think...
### Description Currently, the mass state is added in flight_phase_builder.py with a ref of 1e4 and a defect _ref of 1e6. 1. I think these are actually switched from what...
### Description Currently we save the results of a sizing run to a json file using `aviary_inputs` for the names and values of the data. This is a problem since...
### Desired capability or behavior. There are a number of options that users will want to manipulate during the optimization. For example: `Aircraft.Wing.LOAD_PATH_SWEEP_DIST` are actually functions of `Aircraft.Wing.SWEEP` and should...
