At $1900 for a commercial license for Matlab (only Matlab - not simulink) it's no surprise that some are bypassing Matlab. It's obviously a great tool with a well-established history, but there are some alternatives in the Open Source world (SciLab/SciCos, IIRC). Also, I'm working on JSBSim Commander, which will make using JSBSim with flight controls development a little more fun, if not useful and practical for broader uses. I think it's great that FlightGear is getting so much attention from commercial partnerships. It helps/benefits us all. JSBSim has lately been adding 2 or 3 people per week to the mailing list, so that's encouraging. The newsletter also publishes the new and innovative ways that JSBSim is being used in industry. There's a place for everyone ...
