I'd like to see this, as well, but I think the migration of the newest JSBSim code to FlightGear will be more tedious, and I know people are anxious to get a new FlightGear released. The latest JSBSim code includes numerous bug fixes and new features. It also includes two new features that might conflict with use within FlightGear. JSBSim code now includes the capability to drive FlightGear using the netFDM protocol. So, it includes one FlightGear header file. So, there will need to be some coordination and some #ifdef code to make sure the right one gets used, and so that two possibly different header files are not in the directory tree. Also, there have been extensive additions to the trim code. Agostino De Marco's trim analysis code has been incorporated into JSBSim, and that brings the directsearch library into play. What might be a better option at this time is to copy over certain files that bring self-contained, [relatively] innocuous, bug fixes and feature additions. Gerard - unfortunately, the generic external force capability is not *quite* there. Close, but not quite. It's been close for a long time because I've gotten busier and busier, but it will be done. So, I have little time to do the migration myself, but I can certainly provide advice, and moral and technical support. :-) I think that much of the code in the models/flight_control/ subdirectory can probably be moved over as-is, along with the src/models/FGFCS.* files. There are probably some fixes in the src/math directory, as well. And various others.
