You see, in order to avoid confusion, having just one operational arrestor would have been the clever solution. Maybe we need different devices. We're trying to simulate real-world, don't we ? Sure, we're not perfect but I think we're doing our best within the limits of our ressources. Thus, intentionally leaving an inoperational arrestor in place (instead of fixing it) sounds a bit odd Real-world means, there are some non-operational devices around ;-) Hm, just found this one and thought, sometimes it would make sense to engage the BAK-12 for a Cessna too, but thats not real world, is it? THE ACFT VEERED OFF THE RWY DURING TAKEOFF GROUND RUN AND NOSED OVER. THE PLT INIDCATED THAT DURING THE TAKEOFF HIS SEAT SLID REARWARD AND HE WAS UNABLE TO REACH THE THROTTLE OR THE RUDDER PEDALS. But this is not serious of course, Yves! Now the BAKs. Ai, ai, ai. It is more complicated than I thought (as ever, hrmpfl!). I can get some distances, but not all. And the points I provided are for BAK-9 and not BAK-12. And FAA does not have the BAK-12 or other device distances in the table (with some exceptions I will cover later). There are some standards defined (FAA AC 150/5220-9A): http://www.faa.gov/documentLibrary/media/advisory_circular/150-5220-9A/150_5220_9a.pdf (Hey, this is probably also a cool source to improve the model?) And here a link to a article with useful information chez boeing aeromagazine: http://www.boeing.com/commercial/aeromagazine/aero_13/runway_story.html - Here a short video of a mobile device in action http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zoyrDfA90Ac and more about mobiles: http://www.af.mil/shared/media/epubs/AFH10-222V8.pdf - Minimize the impact to commercial airplane operations http://www.boeing.com/commercial/airports/faqs/arrestingsystems.pdf - any other sources around I missed ? - Our model(s) should depend on runway width (maybe three models for 150/200/300' ar sufficient ?). (Another question came up btw. Shouldn’t this device data go into apt.dat runway definition somehow, like stopways and lightning ?. I would vote for that, but I do not see any possibilities unless we provide a own and modified apt.dat or xplane has some plans to improve this small part too, like it is in with stopways i.e.) Now when I look to charts I find visually more data than in FAA tables. But the overrun distances on runways are not reflected, the symbol is placed where it looks nice on a chart. So I need the length of the overrun from somewhere else, then I can calculate the device coordinates on runway. I found some values in FAA airport remarks and in NOTAMs, other values will be estimated, but I tend to take only data published in FAA data nd NOTAMs, and leave the rest. Now for preparing better data for the scenery I can a) take FAA defined base/reci EOR coords, subtracting overrun per runway (disadvantage: the updated FAA coords differ from xplane data someplaces, the runway ends and center may differ, so without change to the runway lines of the fg apt.dat facility the devive can be misplaced) b) take current FlightGear apt.dat center point of runway, calculate ends and subtract overrun where I can find it (disadvantage: when fg apt.dat is updated once with more accurate data the device will be misplaced too). c) Take xplane 8.50 runway data in the hope it is updated with current FAA data. (disadvantage: I always have to check 3 data sources for inconsistency, fg/xplane/FAA) Personally I prefer a), trying to provide also current runway data associated, published by FAA and not by xplane. I am not sure about that, but I think newer xplane data version are updated with FAA data anyway from time to time, and when WE go for an update, the runway AND device data will be correct. I can not estimate how many runways are affected with changes when I choose a), but I guess it is not that much. I would really like when someone starts to improve the model(s), probably think about scenerarios, making the barriers operational in a sophisticated way, cares about materials, cares about lbs, making it interactive (tower/pilot) Cheers, Yves -- Learn Windows Azure Live!

[Flightgear-devel] 2.6.0 Release progress: Feature Freeze established
Hi all, December, 17th has arrived everywhere on this planet. This is our magic day for the next FlightGear version 2.6.0 to be released in just two months time from now (February 17th, 2012). All our new features for the next release should be in the gitorious repositories by today and the next four weeks should be used for hardening our code base. Everybody working on the source code is strongly encouraged to review the code and look for potential issues. Maybe there are already some in the bugtracker, so it might be worth looking there, too. Please recompile your code with -Wall and carefully look at the compiler warnings - there are still too many and not all of them are nonsens. Please try to change your code so that no warnings are generated. Aircraft developers can now check their models against a known set of features and are welcome to push their latest versions to FGDATA until short before we create the release branch. Thanks everybody who has contributed during the last months. We have some great new features waiting to be explored and we probably also have fixed some long standing bugs. Now, let's try to make this the best FlightGear ever! Being almost green and mostly sunny with just a few showers on Jenkins is a good start. The next action in our release plan will happen on January, 17th when we create the release branches. All the details and much more is published here: http://wiki.flightgear.org/Release_Plan Season's Greetings Torsten -- Learn Windows Azure Live!

Re: [Flightgear-devel] lightning codes, genapts
Hi, yes, the 850 genapts supports the new approach lights. In fact, even the 850 version did in theory, but the file format did not. The relevant code starts here: https://gitorious.org/~papillon81/fg/terragear850/blobs/tg850/src/Airports/GenAirports/lights.cxx#line2635 Please ignore the not supported by data base comments. Those types are also supported. I only have to correct the comments. Of course they work with FG. Cheers, Chris HB-GRAL wrote: Hi all Another question rised up here during my faa-data to apt.dat conversion. Does the current (or the updated) genapts take new approach lightning codes into account ? Can the scenery tools read the new 8.50 runway line already or is this still based on 8.10 specs ? Maybe I missed this point in a discussion here, sorry for that. But to illustrate my question, the problem is that some lightning codes are not covered in 8.10 specs. What I get from FAA: # MALSR # MALSF # MALS # SSALR # SALS # LDIN # RAIL # MIL OVRN # NSTD # ALSF-1 # ALSF-2 # ODALS Now With 8.50 runway line specs I can cover most of this new codes, but not with 8.10, which knows only # SSALS (Simplified short approach light system) # SALSF (Short approach light system with sequenced flashing lights). # ALSF-I (Approach light system with sequenced flashing lights). # ALSF-II (Approach light system with sequenced flashing lights and red side bar lights the last 1000'). # ODALS (Omni-directional approach light system). # Calvert (a British design) category 1. # Calvert (a British design) categories 2 and 3.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] [Flightgear-commitlogs] TerraGear / Custom Scenery branch,
Hi Peter, Flightgear-commitlogs wrote: It doesn't crash, but sometimes, polygons lose their material. I think fixing that should be easier than the endless massaging of data to keep good looking data. According to my/our (Ralf's and mine) experience loosing the material type was usually caused by the point-in-polygon droppping the centroid into the wrong polygon. The terragear-cs history contains a 'robust' point-in-polygon routine by Ralf Gerlich which might me worth investigating. But there's a price to pay because the mentioned method might drop the centroid into areas of the polygon which later are getting eliminated without topologically correct handling of the centroid. To put it into different words: If polygon massaging occurs in a topologically safe manner, there's a robust point-in-polygon available.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] Cessna 172p cockpit improvement
What can be said about the flight dynamics of the C172P model? Is it accurate? If not, how could it be improved? snip -- Learn Windows Azure Live!
