YASim is mainly created by Andy Ross who specifically designed it for FlightGear. It has been modified by David Megginson in several ways.

Where are the key Speedbrake is activated by pressing ctrl+b bindings for seperated aircraft anyway (or do we have common one for all the aircrafts)? You can define special keys in the aircraft.-set.xml file located in FlightGear/data/Aircraft. One example is the p-51d which has ctrl+b assigned for engine boost.

Judging by this model the lighting isn't perfect yet though.
