Hello list,

I have been playing around with the wind some more, and it seems
that JSBSim doesn't only have the up/down winds inverted, but the
north and east winds as well.

I think I am beginning to understand what the source of the
confusion is. As most of you know, weather reports specify the
winds as a _from_ heading. However, in simulated space I tend to
think of wind as a vector, i.e. a _to_ heading. Apparently, two
out of three FDM's agree with my point of view. So what is the
consensus on this one? To or from?

I also found an interesting glitch with YASim: the airspeed
indicator displays the ground speed. I thought I was going to
stall, but didn't. :)


PS: I'll release the script when I have cleaned it up a bit.
