That looks like a bug: what error message (if any) do you get?  Where 
can I find this aircraft to test for myself?

Nasal reading fg-scenery was disabled because it was the easiest way to 
fix the "Nasal can read any file by changing /sim/terrasync-dir" 
security hole (https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=780716) 
and we thought nobody was using it.

An alternative fix for this problem would be to replace 
/sim/terrasync-dir with something stored outside the property tree (i.e. 
out of Nasal's reach).
