OK. So, where is the pilot viewpoint placed, now? Is it no longer placed at the CG. Is FlightGear reading and using that value from a file (this would be good)? Initially, we were providing pilot eyepoint in our config files because it did not appear to be being supplied anywhere else. If that is being supplied and used accurately elsewhere, I'd be perfectly happy. We can still use our value to supply pilot accelerations (for driving motion bases, etc.).
