Hmm.. conventional radar usage is perhaps a bit of a stretch but things such as automated landings use radar verification where being off by half the length of a 747 could lead to 'interesting' things .. there are other interesting uses for radar like things too that are most useful when you aren't necessarily watching the 'screen' * ALARM * ALARM * ALARM * Norman _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel
