>Is there any interest in space flight simulation out there? I don't think it's ruled out, at all. There are at least two issues I can see: 1) FlightGear might have to modify the visuals approach it is currently using to model the earth sphere. 2) The flight dynamics model. JSBSim models centrifugal acceleration, but currently not Coriolis acceleration - though this shouldn't be hard to add *when I have time*! I want to be able at some point to have JSBSim support staged rockets with configurable GNC, but those things are down the road a bit. In short, it's a potential "target area", but there are some dominoes that need to fall first. You interested in helping? :-) Jon _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel
