Hi Gijs, I could not reproduce the problem you described. Tested last git revision for SimGear (1cb8f9237cb7fa47eb8e4a89f135ac17656315a5), FlightGear (1cf207e0540712d3344c48f936a7aade3c5c2797) and data (115032a7c5828c7e82462ca8e57ab0be444d4120). I tried the following commands fgfs --fg-root=/path/to/my/copy/of/fgdata and fgfs --aircraft=747-400 --fg-root=/path/to/my/copy/of/fgdata AFAICT, these are supposed to run the C172P and 747-400. I played a bit with the Cessna (taxiing, taking-off, landing, hard landing, ...) and it behaved correctly. Since I cannot pilot the 747-400, I taxied it a bit and took off and everything went well (well, except that I crashed it while trying to land it). Since I am mostly involved in the landing gears code of JSBSim, I would be interested in having more details about the problem you experienced.
