Torsten, 

Eventually, there will be a null atmosphere model that will allow flightgear to 
completely control the temperature pressure and density. There will also be 
several other atmosphere models available in future versions of JSBSim. I'd 
strongly recommend using the JSBSim atmosphere when flying JSBSim aircraft 
models. If there is an additional capability needed, we can probably add that, 
but I have to ask why fg would not use the JSBSim atmosphere model?

Also, I don't recommend including this new model in the new flightgear release 
thats coming up.

Simplify data backup and recovery for your virtual environment with vRanger.
Installation's a snap, and flexible recovery options mean your data is safe,
secure and there when you need it. Data protection magic?
