That sounds interesting, but it's not completely clear to me what they acutally did to achieve this ;-) Did they create an interface within their own simulation that connects to stock FlightGear, did they extend FlightGear with their specific interface (source code available ?), did they modify the existing FlightGear interface to match their needs ? And a second question, please: Does their "Aerospace Blocks" have any relation the "AeroSim Blockset" by U-Dynamics as presented on these pages: http://www.u-dynamics.com/aerosim/ Cheers, Martin. -- Unix _IS_ user friendly - it's just selective about who its friends are ! -------------------------------------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@flightgear.org http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel 2f585eeea02e2c79d7b1d8c4963bae2d
