And don't forget to consider if the prop can be feathered.
Just an aside... remember light twins single engine performance
numbers are based on *density* altitudes. On a hot, humid day at
higher altitude airports lose an engine and your only option to maintain

It actually does (or should do?) this. I had a "disable-real-weather-fetch" in

It is avaliable in all aircraft. Maybe you don't use CVS version?

I have installed FlightGear v1.9.1 on a Fedora 10, 64-bit system, and I ran
into a couple of problems when I started the sim with stock C-172.
1. How do you change the nav/comm frequency without going through the
Equipment -> Radio Settings menus? In other words: I tried to change the

The code for the propeller model already does drag, assuming the
negative c_thrust values are goo
That's very interesting to know John.Coping with the windmilling drag would
be the next step. But first I want to be able to cut the engine.
Thanks Victhor and Ron.
Victhor, I've tried Method 3 but I cannot find any MTBF for the engines;
maybe this is only available for a specific aircraft model?

Hello,
Is it possible to simulate an engine failure during takeoff (or at any
flight stage) in Flightgear? If the answer is positive, is there an aircraft
model (with two or more engines, of course) ready to do that?

This would really be the best approach. It could then also be used to
live-enable/disable (grey out) widgets, or to change their
