Hi Everyone,

My name is Chris Fourie - I'm a master's student in control engineering. My 
work is in control systems for the autonomous flight of aircraft (primarily 
helicopters).

We do most of our simulations in MATLAB and a few other things, and I'm looking 
for a good way to visualize the data that I generate in simulation. I'm hoping 
to use flight gear - I have the source code but I'm struggling to work out how 
everything fits together without detailed documentation.

I'm looking to modify flightgear so that I'm able to set up a simulation 
environment (using UDP for online simulation) as well as use it for offline 
simulation (watching trajectories and motion using offline data that I've 
generated). I need to set up environments with static landing points as well as 
with moving platforms (eg. aircraft carriers) to ensure that the systems we 
design work.

I'm a bit at a loss as to where to start - I don't have that much experience in 
graphics programming (not that I'm unwilling to learn though, its really 
interesting) and I can't seem to find detailed information on how everything in 
the code fits together.

Is there any one that may have the time to help me or point me in the right 
direction?

Many thanks,

Chris Fourie
