among other FAA documents which use the phrase inbound radial without the slightest hesitation. There are many other instances where you need to know one thing when taking the written test, and need to know something quite different for flying in the real world. Unless otherwise

Re: [Flightgear-devel] location-in-air ... magnetic bearings from the reference

2007-01-04 Thread Torsten Dreyer
That's a good point. I consider it a bug in what I've written. The canonical behavior is to use the magnetic deviation at the /reference/ point. Can somebody give me a hint how to obtain the deviation at the location of arbitrary navaids and airports? The magnetic variation is calculated in

[Flightgear-devel] Animation and osg

Hi, I am preparing put the panel code into the scenegraph. For that I needed a generic scenery picking mechanism. That is now in place together with an 3D model animation type that can be used to execute some commands from our command manager on a mouse pick on specific 3D model objects.

The artificial horizon in the A6M2 appears to have roll reversed. I'm not sure if the problem was introduced in one of the recent commits, or if it's been there since instruments were first added. Other than that little (somewhat confusing) niggle it's a really nice model! Jon
