with high wing aircraft, since you cannot simply look at the fuel filler

If you get the model to a place where you're happy with it, would you

This prototype will only send (good and malformed

I've been looking at the Bendix/King KT 70/71 (transponder) manual and
plan to start implimenting this instrument. Other than tuning in a
freq and having it report flight level is there anything else that I
need to think about? We don't have much in the way of ATC at
I've just checked in a new patch for automatic joystick type detection
(where available). NOTE: it will work *only* if you have a recent (2
months or so) CVS version of plib.
Now, instead of /input/joysticks/js, you can use
/input/joysticks/js-named to create bindings that will be used only

Yah, and my British boss who is currently in Japan has been firing off

Ok, so within flightgear, given a 'true' altitude, how can I compute
the correct flight-level / pressure-altitude for display on the
transponder?
The simple answer is that you ask the static port for the air pressure,
which in turn will ask the environmental module what the local
I just checked in new code to impliment a Bendix/King KT 70

There is no associated panel graphics at this point, I'm hoping that
some will magically coughJohn/cough appear at some point in the
future. :-)
- Annunciators are implimented
- Code selector knobs are working.

Here in the USA we celebrate our independence with a lot of fireworks
displays.
That got me thinking ... is there anyone out there that wants to play
around with opengl/plib and create a nice little 3d fireworks which we
could include. Then in combination with our new script engine we
could do
Of course if you actually went up to see the 3d fireworks effect, then
to be completely realistic you should expect an F-16 on your butt
after about 5-10 minutes.
If you don't go for the big ones, such as Washington DC, you'll find plenty
of general aviation pilots circling and watching the
