Was my English so bad that it was not understandable that i tried to give an
answer about the Dan Lyke's remark which involved the P51.
I did say, that model could have been modelled easier to fly, like some
others ( i maintain my opinion) , then it is not an example which demonstrate
the ressources given by FlightGear .
However, it shows the difficulties to take off with a taildragger.
In the category, the Vivian' s aircraft are representative => Spitfire,
Hurricane ....etc
You are a bit provocative, since you try to modify the content of my talk,
suggesting that i am criticizing the actual P51 , by telling me to make a
patch.
Giving a patch would need for me to know YASim ( i don' know it, since it is
not my language ) and to have the full aerodynamic description, which is a
lot of doc that i never tried to get ( in anycase it would have been in a
language close to JSBSim).

BTW: it is existing a JSBSim FDM for the p51d.
