Very nice model indeed. Looks like a nice addition to FlightGear's small but 
continously growing fleet of 3-engined wide-body jetliners. :-)

I have good experiences creating a basic FDM for the MD11 using aeromatic. The 
earomatic script creates an xml file that you can later edit to tweak. My 
experience is that you most likely want to change the engine file and fuel 
tank sections a bit to get the overall performance and range in the right 
ballpark, but other than that the default aeromatic does a reasonable job 
(note, I'm neither a pilot nor an aeronautical engineer, so my idea of 
*reasonable* might actually be quite unreasonble :-))

Unless you're sending out small patches for a second opinion, it's best to 
send your work to one of the developers with CVS write access and ask if 
they'd be willing to add your contribution to cvs. I'm not sure who actually 
have write permission these days.
