Hi Curt, Yup, if you are in a AAR-capable aircraft, click on AI-AITanker. Click Request in the window displayed, and a tanker will be instantiated nearby. The controller will tell you where it is relative to your current position. Hope it still works! I haven't tested it for several years.

Geosciences was one source, but there was at least one other I struggle to remember. It was 3 years ago that I first downloaded any data. In any eventuality I need to download the data again, so will double check the licenses for each source. It would be a little disheartening to not be allowed

Hi Thorsten, I'm not an FDM expert. Maybe the speed has no meaning. But right now, YASim uses the given cruise altitude. And when the cruise section is missing, YASim doesn't initialize any cruise settings - including the cruise temperature _cruiseT. And since its (stupid) default is 0

It would be really, really cool if you could do this using the JSBSim internal features so it could run in stand-alone, too. :) Ron This is true, because JSBSim is well-suited to various GNC systems modeling. This has already been done to some degree, but not a lot of time has been spent on

[Flightgear-devel] Squaring Control Inputs

If it was important that a JSBSim aircraft model gets a non-squared joystick input - that is, a linear joystick position from -1. To +1 (regardless of what is in the joystick file), how would we command (at runtime) the squaring to be false? The thinking is that there should be a class method in
