You, do YASim for the hunter?

For the *first* *proof* *of* *concept*, you can also let the hook hang below 
ground.
That is what I actually try to do at the moment with JSBSim.
I want to have something where I can test if I can see the wires I have now 
injected in my scene.
The Aircraft I use for that is a private one with a 4-th gear at its tail. 
This 4th gear has a tiny spring constant and a well defined name. A gear 
named 'HOOK' interacts with a line called 'Wire'.
This is the preliminary test to find all that stuff ;)

I hope to send you a version of that stuff today evening ...

   Greetings
