On an extremely smooth landing for me (no bump at all), it makes an

I always like to leave the plane with full tanks to keep water out of
the fuel system (no air == no condensation). After landing, I
generally taxi straight up to the pumps and shut down. The line guy

I've flown several incipient spins (with an instructor,
un/cross-coordinated power-on stall) in the Cessna 172 and they were
quite exciting. :-)

The nose does indeed shoot skyward.. The aircraft climbed 100ft

that you have when flying
the real aircraft covers up most of the effects.
Good job!

to fly as the real thing, so I vote for it being the default.

Can you take pictures straight down? I guess it would be possible
with a high-winged plane
in adding photo-realistic scenery to the Flightgear
scenery database? Is there any documentation that I should read before
starting on such an endeavor? Any pitfalls?
Thanks in advance,
