Hi,
has anyone recently used the FDR? I've just recorded a couple of
flights with the a4-yasim, and whenever I try to play back the
recording, fgfs dies with a segfault.
The commands used were the ones from README.IO, and I've used them
once a while ago with the c172. Maybe it's a yasim issue?

If someone can supply a core ECMAScript implementation that is small
