When an aircraft is deployed, it's vehicle:get_dock_state() is listed as e_vehicle_dock_state.undocking while it is being moved by the crane. However, once the crane places the vehicle on the ground, it's vehicle:get_dock_state() is listed as e_vehicle_dock_state.docked until the aircraft is actually in the air.
This leads to a number of issues, most prominent of which is the ability to modify an aircraft's loadout while it's being launched. It is also causing a number of issues with the UI mod.
