I'm an ASEL pilot (without glider training) but I was of the impression that the variometer was a slightly modified pitot tube connected to a VSI. Are you trying to simulate the aircraft instrument or are you trying to provide the same value as an expensive air data computer would yield ? If you want the air data computer output, you'll need the C++ stuff. If you want realism, I suggest you assemble what real aircraft use. I don't know whether there are any avionics techs with glider background on the list. If not, I'd be happy to ask the local FAA office, or some of the staff at the several gliderports around here, for help _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@flightgear.org http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel 2f585eeea02e2c79d7b1d8c4963bae2d
