The way its set up right now, it should trim in-air if the speed is
above 10 knots.
>From FGJSBSim::do_trim():
if(fgic->GetVcalibratedKtsIC() < 10 ) {
fgic->SetVcalibratedKtsIC(0.0);
fgtrim=new FGTrim(fdmex,fgic,tGround);
} else {
fgtrim=new FGTrim(fdmex,fgic,tLongitudinal);
}
If there's a more reliable way to figure out that we want to
be on the ground (aside from a similar hack with altitude)
I'll be happy to change it.

We all know Linux is great ... it does infinite loops in 5 seconds.
