Parking brake is just a on/off flag (1bit).
Well, right, but not totally. I've seen aircrafts accepting a double
value, and I'd like to make it consistent. Intermediate values make
sense here since it's a lever that moves along a path (or at least
rotates around a hinge). It's not a two

How a parking brake on small aircraft works:
There is a hydraulic line between the brake cylinders at the pedals ('toe
brakes'). The hydraulic pressure pushes pistons in the brake saddle (aircraft
fixed) against the brake disk on the wheels.
In this line there is a valve that can block this

Agreed, but the as you are saying, the brake is hydraulic and therefore there
will always be a valve that traps the hydraulic fluid and keeps the pressure on
the brake pistons. This valve will always only be fully closed in the end
position (Just as a tip if you will be using a 'double'). This

No.
At least the older C172's are having mechanically operated parking
brake levers which apply force onto the same hydraulic master
I see, I am sure there are more. I must admit I am more familiar with aircraft
that are a bit more modern then the models you mention. But I do know (I just
had a look) that an old PA28-200 has a seperate, parallel cylinder with a
handle in the middle console and a knob to fix it.

How could I think that parking brakes would have been such a hot topic??!! :-)
Anyway, I appreciate the long detailed point of views. It's clear to me I have
to be generic enough with this input device.
Well, it's going to stay as a 'double' but not a 24bit resolution anyway!

Hi,
I have found multiple format string vulnerabilities in Flightgear and
Simgear. This could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code in a
Flightgear user's machine. This is possible because user controlled format
string is passed directly to printf family functions without any
validation.
OK ,I was just gathering opinions , and it appears it should stay.Now
I know how to proceed.
Thanks guys.
