FSX Douglas Skyhawk Fix

Douglas Skyhawk gets a practical ground-handling correction for the updated package by fixing aircraft contact points so the wing wheels properly meet the runway and taxiways. Designed for Microsoft Flight Simulator X, this aircraft.cfg update restores accurate stance and rollout behavior for more believable takeoffs, landings, and parking.

This is an important fix for the FSX Douglas Skyhawk update (FSX_DOUGLAS_SKYHAWK_UPDATED.ZIP). The contact points had to be corrected, as the wing wheels didn't touch the ground. Contact point fix by Michael Pook.
