Re: [Flightgear-devel] A320 progress
For those interested, there were several models of the Wright Flyer this year at the Paris Air Show, including a Flyer One, not quite identical to the original one, made by students at the ESTACA, a French engineering school, and they intend to fly it before the end of the year (on december 17, to commemorate the Wright Flyer's first flight). A friend of mine was responsible for the publicity, and she succeeded in having regional, and maybe national, TV crews come over so that they would appear on the evening news. -- Jorge Van Hemelryck ___ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel

I'm glad it's not just me, then! I'm struggling with a *very* simplified C152! Cheers, Matt. On Tue, 2003-06-17 at 04:36, Jim Wilson wrote: Don't be embarassed.

http://perso.wanadoo.fr/frbouvi/flightsim/a320-fgfs-03.png What was the flight model for this? Was David Culp modifying the 737? Yes, it's got A320-200 metrics and 737 aerodynamics. The engines are higher thrust versions of the CFM-56. Dave Culp ___ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel
