I just discovered that our property "metrics/eyepoint-x-ft" shows that it is expected to be in units of feet. However, it is specified in inches in our config file (in structural frame), and the property is bound to the GetXYZep() function, which reports the eyepoint in the same way it is specified: units of inches, in structural frame. I suppose this ought to be changed. Jon _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel
