Consider the PBY Catalina or other amphibian:

FDM is the acronym we use for "flight dynamics model". Conceptually, a
"physics engine" engine covers much of the same ground. If I were to get
really nitpicky, perhaps

Ok, thanks.
I've thinked a bit more about this whole idea and, since i was
planning to code Motorsport as a library instead of as a standalon
executable, maybe Motorsport can be used from FlightGear, instead of
being coded inside it.
It looks like FG already uses several different physics engines

Try this:

It should work with 0.9.10, but you will not have different ground

Quick question: by "ground reactions" you mean collision detection and
response? Are there no plane-to-plane collisions currently, only basic
plane-to-ground? And is the ground a generic trimesh or a h

Ground reactions have been a hot topic for a while. It sounds like Andy has
go
Sounds like fg is ready to be a road sim then!

It was fine when I checked. Had screenshots of the sim.
Looked pretty good!

Sorry, don't know how I got to that URL.
That's http://developer.berlios.de/projects/openfdm/ of course.

Just to help you.
X-plane simulates springs and tires and has an open interface. People
have built cars for x-plane.
The roads suck though.
I think it would be great if fgear did this too.

I think it's worth pointing out that in FlightGear cvs we
have models of a jeep and of a snowplow (truck). The dynamics are based on
YAsim and the wheel/suspension modeling seems to work really well. I was
actually very impressed at the sorts of things that YAsim does ... Andy

I'm not familiar with the suspension geometry of planes, but i *guess*
it can be modelled as a series of "bodies", "joints", "springs" and
"dampers", together with the tire model.
Planes tires are pretty big, so they're an important part of the
suspension process in landings too (and braking.. pla
