Is it possible to adjust the aircraft .cfg file to lessen or stop the bobbing of a float plane while docked beside a boat that doesn't?

Jim, I guess you are comparing a fixed scenery item (the boat) to a "live" aircraft.

Can it be done ... well, yes but not in a reasonable way.

1. Make the aircraft an AI version (not flyable), or
2. Spread the contact points out over a hundred feet might help; not sure, or
3. Make the aircraft as a scenery item.

I don't think either of these options are what you want but know that even if the aircraft had no suspension, it would still bob around in the water.
