I recall that Syd Adams added the possibility of reverse thrust for propeller engines a couple of years back. Looking at the YASim 2.0.0 source code and the Gitorious repository though, I don't see any references to reverse for propellers where I'd expect to see it. I wonder if this one didn't get approved/committed? Syd, if you're listening, any thoughts? -Gary ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Colocation vs. Managed Hosting A question and answer guide to determining the best fit for your organization - today and in the future. http://p.sf.net/sfu/internap-sfd2d _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/flightgear-devel
