As crazy as it sounds, I've been unable to find a large jet in
FlightGear with a good, functional 3D cockpit. FGFS seems, however, to
have a lot of potential, and I want to contribute if I can. I should say
I have a lot more ambition than experience, but I may as well gain that
experience here.
What I intend to do is model a 3D cockpit for the Antonov An-225,
creating new instruments, using photographs of the cockpit in an An-124
for reference. I can, to some pathetic degree, use Blender, and I have a
reasonable understanding of the XML involved in making it all work.
Relevant information would be useful, if I'm not taking a dive into the
Mariana Trench when a kiddie pool is more my level.
Eventually, all jets should have thrust reversers included, also.
Incidentally, I wanted to do this with the Tu-154, but it needs more
work beyond the limited scope of my capabilities, IE with its flight
dynamics and exterior model.

I have:
- Completely remapped and retextured the exterior model. This may
have been entirely pointless, but seems cleaner and can easily be
retextured for any purpose.
- Altered the sounds to better resemble the sound of a big jet. I
think it was an easy, very effective fix.
- Added primitive, untextured cockpit panels.
- Separated the thrust reverser doors from the nacelles and
added representations of the reverser vents underneath. I have not
animated or coded the thrust reversers.
