I'm new to Flightgear, so I don't know if carb heat is simulated.  But,
in the c172p-3d model, the carburetor heat is stuck in the "on"
position.  I'd prefer to be able to turn it "off" so that I can get all
of the climb performance I can...  :-)

Also, the aircraft C-FGFS has a bit of a more of a left-yaw and
left-roll tendency than the climb-prop equipped 145hp Cessna 172 that I
rent(N5394T).  The ground-adjustable rudder trim tab on 94T is set so
that it flies coordinated without any rudder input at 105mph.

Other than that, I really like the model and the 3d panel!  This
particular model "feels" good and takes about the same amount of effort
to fly as the real thing, so I vote for it being the default.
