But again: it is unlikely that this model will be maintained in the future. The standard FlightGear 172 is a JSBSim model, and it works quite well. If there is something specific you need from the Skyhawk model, you might best be served by modifying the JSBSim one. And if you want a YASim lightplane, definitely check out the pa28-161. This is very well tuned (by David Megginson, who actually owns such a Cherokee) and works great.
Andy A, At your suggestion, I spent this AM looking at the Cherokee / Warrior and agree it's as realistic as needed. My problem arises in the radio/nav stack where the individual VOR's cannot be set independently like in the c172, ie: the headings on each OBS are always the same. I'm looking into an instructor's aide for IFR approaches and would like to define an approach path intersection with the second vor-radial, easy to do with the c-172. To add to the confusion, I'm using the energy markers in the HUD to define inputs to the student and the Yasim FDM seems to support more HUD components than the JBS FDM... although I haven't spent too much time in the hud_ladr.cxx to find the links...
