Hi,

I saw in the archives that someone asked how to start Flightgear with 
the aircraft in the air and stable but didn't see any responses.  I am 
trying to do the same thing for practicing instrument approaches and 
running into problems.  Specifically I'm trying to fly the LOC/DME 31 
approach for Salinas (KSNS) and using the following command line:

./fgfs --enable-fullscreen --timeofday=morning --airport=ksns 
--offset-distance=25 --offset-azimuth=107 --heading=297 --altitude=6000 
--vc=110 --nav1=311:108.5 --nav2=297:117.3 --dme=nav2 --ceiling=800

It puts me in the right position however the attitude indicator shows a 
left bank of about 20 degrees even though the turn coordinator and 
heading indicator show wings level flight.  I can't get the AI to work 
even if I fail it and unfail it in the Equipment menu.  Suggestions?

Also is there any way to specify a starting location relative to a VOR 
or a fix?  I tried using the --vor and --fix command line options but 
they seemed to be ignored and flightgear took the offset-distance and 
offset-azimuth relative to KHAF instead of the VOR/fix I wanted.

This is flightear 1.0 on linux

Thanks!
Ben
