Not in this context. The data here isn't being used to model a specific engine, but to provide sane parameters for all (super/turbochared) engines. The performance and code size advantages of an equation here are significant. > Does FlightGear have a format and utilities for table lookups? > Perhaps it's worth developing some if they don't already exist (I'd > be willing to contribute). Probably several. YASim has one for doing interpolation of standard atmosphere parameters, and I'm sure there's a similar engine in the JSBSim code, which depends on tables extensively in its configuration.
