If I hadn't committed the font file, and changed some variable names for easier editing, there wouldn't have much been left from the diffs. Just a few lines. And I'm almost done with it. (I just try to split the patches into smaller parts, so that I look busier. ;-) m. ___ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@flightgear.org http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel 2f585eeea02e2c79d7b1d8c4963bae2d

[Flightgear-devel] Google Earth
Has anyone used Google Earth? It seems to be very usefull for getting information to place objects with FGSD. How do they get the elevation of the buildings? http://earth.google.com/images/field.jpg I'm using it in order to get the Cadiz - Gibraltar zone more accurate and it helps a lot.

[Flightgear-devel] Rutan and Scaled Composites [was code optimization]
YASim is perfectly happy with asymmetric aircraft, FWIW. Andy Has anyone tried to model the Boomerang? Thats the most asymmetric thing I've seen. Or any other Rutan aircraft for that mater? I once downloaded a Velocity and a Starship for MSFS and they were really fun to fly - not sure if the dynamics were correct at all because they really wanted to fly in a way thats hard to describe. OTOH I have read that canards really do like to fly compared to other aircraft.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] groundcache related

[...] Does anybody know where I am wrong or how I could solve my problem ? At the moment, the groundcache does not itself care for the required ground tiles to be loaded. I guess that this is missing. Try doing something like that: SGLocation location; [ set the location to lat/lon/alt ] globals-get_tile_mgr()-update(location, your_radius, location-get_absolute_view_pos()); Not tested myself, but hopefully works. I am thinking about making the ground cache schedule tiles to be loaded. ... so I am still working on that :) Greetings Mathias -- Mathias Fröhlich, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@flightgear.org http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel 2f585eeea02e2c79d7b1d8c4963bae2d

OTOH I have read that canards really do like to fly compared to other aircraft. The trick of the canard is that you can arrange things such that the canard surface stalls before the main wing. Because it is forward of the c.g., this causes a downward pitch, thus saving the pilot from a main wing stall. It's not quite stall proof, because it only applies to near-steady-state changes, but it will save a dumb pilot who pulls back too hard on the yoke. This would be perfectly doable in YASim, if anyone wants to try it. Just put the hstab where it belongs and set the stall angle appropriately.

Andy I've had a longeze on my list for quite a while now and have been planning to do it just as you suggest re the hstab. I couldn't see any real problems with it.
