FlightGear's model loader (part of plib) supports many different file formats. The best supported is currently AC3D (.ac) format, which is native to that shareware modeller (www.ac3d.org) and well-supported in Blender by a Python export script. This particular extension, .wrl, indicates a VRML file. Maybe we should fix the docs to use .ac instead. > Next, there are detailled instructions for how to animate rudder, > throttle, etc., but how does the program know what part of my model is > the rudder, throttle, etc., and what makes the part move? Almost all 3D modelling programs allow you to associate "names" with object sub-parts. These names then appear in the XML content that describes the animation.
