Most people probably will agree that it's a V-12 piston engine ;-)

Hi Guys
I had a play with this last night by using the 737 FDM on the
747 and hacking it around to see what would happen and everything
worked ok till the CofG got over 850 X units(what do the units represent
inches
feet ??), or the MLG was moved back past 850 X units.I also noticed if the

common behavior. Also, doctype issues can affect this sort of thing because of the

Hello,
Since my last CVS update of simgear and flightgear two weeks ago, I get the
following runtime error after a succesfull compile.

I just wanted to warn people that last night I got OpenAL working here

1. I redid the lower level sound sample and sound manager interfaces a
bit to clean things up and simplify things. I'm not sure it's worth
going back and getting this new interface
I just did a bit of a performance test with FlightGear on my PC running
Windows 2000, 1.2GHz Athlon, 256 MB RAB, and 64MB GeForce 2MX400. I did a
reboot first, made sure I had no extraneous processes running, and cranked
up FlightGear under CygWin (My desktop is 32 bit, 1024x768). FlightGear
I selected the Location menu item that allows selection of an airport from a
list. When I selected the menu item I got a segfault.
I had just taken off in the c172, paused the sim, and made the menu

He meant radial, of course, which was true of most WWII era aircraft

Anyone else interested.
I reset the c172 default start up a/c (reset or not this happens).
I reset then put parking brake on.
Leave it for 5 mins and then notice it's yawed slightly to port.

Sure, and that works ok, but I bet if you record the engine at different

It's a misfeature in the gear modelling. YASim has pretty much the
