Well, FlighGear has its own atmosphere model that is also used by the
other subsystems (e.g. instruments, weather reports, visual system, AI
traffic and whatnot). So far there has been few reasons not use that
model also for the FDM.
I think the FDM only needs to know the atmospheric
The way I understand this, the issues are to some degree separate (?).
I believe (correct me if I'm wrong) that what Jon is largely talking about
is the altitude extrapolation of atmosphere conditions, i.e. given that I
specify pressure, temperature and dew point at sea level, how will these
I'm working on modifying the interface between JSBSim and FlightGear to work
with the new JSBSim standard atmosphere model. There are two or three ways
that the atmosphere model can be modified by the calling application:
A temperature bias can be added to the entire temperature profile (from sea

Hi Jon,
since FlightGear has it's own atmosphere model, how will this

Eventually, there will be a null atmosphere model that will allow flightgear to
completely control the temperature pressure and density. There will also be
several other atmosphere models available in future versions of JSBSim. I'd
strongly recommend using the JSBSim atmosphere when

needed, we can probably add that, but I have to ask why fg would not use
the JSBSim atmosphere model?
Well, FlighGear has
