Here's another challenge to keep people busy: try landing the 172p
(default aircraft) on 28L (default runway) at KSFO (default airport)
in the shortest distance possible.  Start with this command line:

  fgfs --altitude=600 --vc=70 --offset-distance=1

The wheels must touch nothing but the runway, and you should try to be
completely stopped before the first TDZ markings (the two sets of
lines just past the number).  If you run from a shell window, JSBSim
will print out how long your ground roll actually was.

No cheating by adding a headwind.  It is entirely possible to stop a
C172, real or simulated, in well under 500 feet.


All the best,


David
