Which FDM? There are three (count 'em) descriptions of where the Cessna 310 wheels are relative to the aircraft coordinate origin -- the model's, JSBSim's, and YASim's. My guess is that none of them agree. The only way to get this right is by brute force: check the descriptions for errors, figure out which is right by reference to ... something authoritative, and force them all to the same value while evading the inevitable unit and coordinate system convention differences. :) Even then, you'll need to put support for gear compression into the model description in order to have the wheels stay above ground. It's probably not as awful as I've made it sound, but it is tedious. Andy -- Andrew J.
