From the PA-44-180 Seminole Pilot's Operating Handbook:
A micro switch incorporated in the throttle quadrant activates the gear
warning horn under the following conditions:
(a) The gear is not locked down and the manifold pressure has fallen
below 14 inches on either one or both engines

Ever since FlightGear used shadows for some of the aircraft there is an
annoying bug, in plib(?) that makes the shadow not appear again after it
had once been culled away. I've worked around this in the bo105 files,
but I'd like to get rid of the workaround. I decided to put the description

Anyone have any thoughts or ideas?
1. FlightGear has a property called /velocities/airspeed-kt; does anyone
know if this was originally intended to be VCAS, VIAS, VTAS, or what?
2. The pitot system uses /velocities/airspeed-kt as it's input (and
seems to assume this value is VIAS.)

Would this be a valid way to explain away the problem:
The conversion between VCAS and VIAS is aircraft specific and is often
shown in a table in the POH (and depends on things like flap position.)
So FG can't come up with a nice tidy formula to convert between the two
values. Thus FlightGear

Hey everyone,
FlightGear (source and base), and SimGear source are now available for

6. If we split out /velocites/airspeed-kt into
/velocities/airspeed-vcas-kt and /velocities/airspeed-vias-kt are we
going to break a lot of stuff?
This has been there so long I'd almost suggest depricating it and removing
airspeed-kt sometime in the distant
Good idea!
Now what would be really neat is if we could get some seeders started
with the entire world scenery distribution.
Things that size (i.e. HUGE!) is where bit torrent can really shine.
I would volunteer, but I don't have the entire set ...

Yes, getting the entire scenery available via bittorrent would be
great. (As long as there are seeders)
But it's huge, and would take some work.

The directory should be plural, Engines. Maybe that will fix it.
Also, this prop config will give you better thrust. Aero-Matic's prop
