[Flightgear-devel] Altitude above ground

2007-08-06 Thread Eser KUBALI
Thank you for your help. I find a simple way to calculate the altitude above ground with the help of Mathias' e-mail. For a null or a new FDM, to calculate the altitude above ground : _update_ground_elev_at_pos(); // Runs the ground queries get_Runway_altitude() // Th
