Forcefeedback Joy Stick tweek
The stick shake setup for the ground roll on all CFS2 airplanes is,  quite excessive... here's the fix for FF sticks: just add these lines in each "aircraft.cfg" files:
[forcefeedback]
ground_bumps_magnitude1=3800
ground_bumps_angle1=8900
ground_bumps_intercept1=5.0
ground_bumps_slope1=0.48
ground_bumps_magnitude2=1550
ground_bumps_angle2=9100
ground_bumps_intercept2=0.075
ground_bumps_slope2=1.0
crash_magnitude1=1000
crash_direction1=01000
crash_magnitude2=1000
crash_direction2=9000
crash_period2=75000
crash_duration2=2500000
The amount of shaking is controlled by the "magnitude" variable, from 0 to 10000. Adjust to suit your taste... This also toned down the crash shaking quite a bit...

ABILITY TO SEE ALL AIRCRAFT
There are many models of aircraft and repaints, to see them in your game you need to either have the same aircraft/repaint or edit your cfs2.cfg file. Open cfs2.cfg in notepad, locate the line [Multiplayer] just down from this edit the following.
ALLOW_PLANE_MODEL_SEND=1
ALLOW_PLANE_MODEL_RECEIVE=1
ALLOW_TEXTURE_SEND=1
ALLOW_TEXTURE_RECEIVE=1
MAX_SEGMENTS_PER_SEC=1
Save the file.  Right click on the file, choose properties and select “read only” and choose OK so CFS2 won’t change it back to the original settings the next time you start CFS2 program.
