Thales, The latest development version in cvs does a much better job of crash detection. I'd suggest you grab the latest code from cvs: http://www.simgear.org/cvs.html (simgear) http://www.flightgear.org/cvsResources/anoncvs.html (fgfs) http://rockfish.net/fg/ (base package) Right now when flight gear detects a crash it simply freezes the sim. The idea is that if we have motion hardware connected up, we don't want to overdrive the hardware beyond it's capabilities. But, a nice crash scene could be an interesting option.
