Kay, the short answer is, "No". LSL is not fully supported by the
default settings of the OpenSim platform. In particular road vehicles
have been difficult to get to operate at all, and flying vehicles,
well, I gave up on those a year ago, but since then ODE has become the
new default.
Status of various LSL scripting functions is on this page:
http://opensimulator.org/wiki/LSL_Status/Functions
The longer answer is "On the other hand...". OpenSim new default
physics engine ("OpenDynamicsEngine - ODE) can be BETTER than Second
Life's version of Havok4.
There's investigation of "ninja physics" to include actual axles and
hinges and physics that work, among other things.

Speaking as an undergraduate physics graduate, the physics in Second
Life is ... bizarre. Whoever implemented it didn't really grasp the
basic principles of dynamics, so it's all sort of a huge kludge to get
it to function.
The OpenSimulator vehicle script page
http://opensimulator.org/wiki/Vehicles#VEHICLE_Scripting_Examples
was last updated when work was suspended October 24, 2009 when she ran
into a show-stopper obstacle.
BUT, the OSgrid forum lists a number of more current scripts, and was
last updated in 2011.

I copied a flight fly script from [1], but it just doesn't work
even if I applied it to a simple prim. So I was wondering if
Linden Script gets a fully support from OpenSim platform?
Thanks for your expertise!

Hi Han, et al,
I endeavored to use the LSL vehicle script in a car in the OS
platform and discovered the script only works on the X axis and
further only works in an east to west direction. In turn, is it
possible your airplane [vehicle] script similarly only works on the X
axis and in an east to west direction?
Best,
Kay
