Hi, all:
I've just compiled the latest FlightGear. It runs, but heaven help me if
I should try and switch from the FlightGear window to another window
in X. The sound ends and X becomes unresponsive. I can't even switch to

I'm glad it's not just me, then! I'm struggling with a *very*
simplified C152!
Cheers,
Matt.

Ah, I get it. How about /sim/lsd?
Kidding aside, it'd be better to have individual switches and values. Might
be good to start a /sim/sky path for configuring these
The heading bug on the HSI does not seem to work.When you select a new

move with it as the A/C turns.And the A/C just does circles.
Is this a problem in the C code or is it in the xml file for the instrument.

I've found a way to get winds aloft in a text format. It's on the
weather.noaa.gov site.
It's available in an html page at http://aviationweather.gov/fdwinds.
Even better, the following urls have them in plain text for each
region: http://weather.noaa.gov/pub/data/raw/fd/ and

What was the flight model for this? Was David Culp
modifying the 737?
Yes, it's got A320-200 metrics and 737 aerodynamics. The engines are higher
thrust versions of the CFM-56.
