There IS a script that copies FDMs from JSBSim over to FG to keep them up to date. However, I don't know if it's working. I'm happy with manually updating the FG c172p FDM when appropriate - though probably more regularly than once per release, and ideally not immediately after feature freeze! I prefer manually syncing and checking that the changes are valid, rather than blindly over-riding what we've already got. -Stuart ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Write once.
