I can easily generate ISA atmosphere data to 71,000 m (232940 ft) ... and beyond that if you wish (to the limited extent that ISA makes sense above 71 km). The tabulated data in the current FlightGear model atmosphere came from me. A couple of years ago the top of the FlightGear atmosphere model was extended (from 60,000 to 100,000 feet). I have no idea why it was not extended all the way up at that time. ================ Also note that the FlightGear model, whether or not extended in height, is a one-parameter model which (to put it politely) does not adhere to the laws of physics. It puts out wrong answers whenever the temperature differs significantly from ISA standard day. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by: SourcForge Community SourceForge wants to tell your story. http://p.sf.net/sfu/sf-spreadtheword _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/flightgear-devel
