[Flightgear-devel] Default Aircraft Candiates
Hi, Perhaps some of you have noticed, that some of the aircraft that come with the standard flightgear package should be changed. A few examples, we could have a more realistic commercial jet than the 777-200(the FDM is terribly unrealistic), we could have a better modeled helicopter than the BO-105, and a better ultralight than the dragonfly. I suggest we refine these aircraft, and say, replace the BO-105 with either the EC-135, EC-130, or AH-1. The Dragonfly could be swapped with the M18B Dromader, and the 772, well, it could be replaced with a commercial jet that _doesn't_ handle like an F-18, but still has a nice cockpit and good model. What do you guys think? Any additional suggestions?

Re: [Flightgear-devel] Default Aircraft Candiates
we could have a better modeled helicopter than the BO-105 I am wondering what makes you feel the Bo105 is not as realistic as others. It has one of the most sophisticated helicopter FDMs in FlightGear which has been approved by real pilots. Almost every other FDM is based on guessing more or less.

The 777-200 has now an own repository on gitorious.org, and I see a lot of improvements. Currently it is the Airliner with the most sophisticated AP and other systems like Autobrakes etc... The Bo105 is the heli with the most realistic fdm we have. It is based on detailed real datas from a NASA-report and behaves like the real one. The Bell UH1 is realistic as well, and makes use of the same NASA report, but has some problems with Autorotation. Btw. is the Bo105 easy to fly and recommended for beginners. That's why I still vote for the Bo105. The Ec135 has some problems with fps-perfomance and I'm currently working on fix this issues. The Ec130 needs a good documentation for the beginners as the startup is not for beginners, and this needs some time to write.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] FGrun compile problem against v.2.2 git
Fred, Ok I cant figure it, I had quite a few goes at compiling it yesterday and deleted them all as I went. but the one in question most likely was an old version.

Better is an objective cruise speed of the aircraft at x,000 feet is 500 knots when it should be 520 knots. Note: I have plucked those figures out of the air for the discussion. However, the first statement is open to arguement and the next question of what and how is blah broken. The second example can be responded to as yes you are right the FDM is a little out or No, it's correct as cruise alttiude of air craft should be no higher than y,000 feet. As I deal with vauge user reports with as little information to go on as The Internet is broken, I am all for as much information as can be provided. Which application... the list goes on. Jack, I know you meant well but stating that an aircraft could be replaced with another isn't particularly helpful without naming a successor. It help as other can then agree with your or say that something else is more worthy. I think this discussion comes up every time a new release gets close.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] FGrun compile problem against v.2.2 git
Fred, Csaba Thank you both very much for the assitance. First I installed gettext, it still failed to compile, then I added --with-fltk=/usr/lib to my configure line and it built with just one warning. that being for info : g++ -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I/usr/lib/include -I/include/ -DLOCALEDIR=\/share/locale\ -g -O2 -MT wizard_funcs.o -MD -MP -MF .deps/wizard_funcs.Tpo -c -o wizard_funcs.o wizard_funcs.cxx wizard_funcs.cxx: In member function ‘void Wizard::preview_aircraft()’: so I removed the gettext made clean and tied again and all was still ok. thus I have installed fluid (maybe already in most desktop installs) ./autogen.sh ./configure --prefix=$prefix CPPFLAGS=-I$prefix/include/ LDFLAGS=-L$prefix/lib -L$prefix/lib64 --with-fltk=/usr/lib make and it built ok. Again the same warning, but I assume its not serous? Providing it proves to be repeatable I will be happy, but I am installing it in a very minimalistic system running on stick. Many folks using normal desktop installs might not find the problems I do. Fred based on your previous response to my question about grabbing the output to FG, I have made a script to catch the output and filter it, then fire it off to multiple machines. Ie a master machine and 2 running as slaves for window views I have put it up on a new page, actually complete new FG based sub-domain on my site, http://flightgear.bali-gold.com/ Here i am putting my notes for FG in hardware sim settups with multiple machines, and bare bones hard-disk free installs. Not really of interest to the average desktop user. I have put the script with some notes at http://flightgear.bali-gold.com/howto_fgrun_multi.html Finally could I ask do you know where i can disable the call in FGrun to open the monitor window or pipe it to a file? In my particular config with TWM the window is bit of a pest.

Pictures promoting the app show the infamous ProFl*Sim package. It also has a link to the profl*sim website (e.g. FlightGear dot us). So, it's another activity of the ProFl*Sim scammers. They certainly haven't ported FG to Android, so it's either a complete hoax - or they indeed try to sell the Android remote control (pretending it to be a full flightsim). My guess is the latter (since it saves them work of creating a hoax application first).

Re: [Flightgear-devel] Default Aircraft Candiates
Two things cross my mind, whilst I know the designers strive to model the true aerodynamics in the fdm. 1- how many fly these sims on realistic hardware? Would many even go as far as a set of imitation yoke and pedals? 2- I have spent some time in F28s set up for airport navaid calibration surveys in the past, No pax and no bags or cargo, not a lot of fuel onboard, and I have to tell you that aeroplane could really go!, those pilots could and would throw that thing all over the sky. There was never any hint of that performance riding in an F28 on normal passenger service. I suspect most people would run FG airliners without full weight and slack tanks which vastly alters the power to weight ratio of the aircraft.

It's a hoax. The user comment that Curt found said it all. The app merely takes you to their website - so you can buy another scam product.

I suspect most people would run FG airliners without full weight and slack tanks which vastly alters the power to weight ratio of the aircraft. Harry This is very true. I've not explored the parameters of the 777 in FG, but if you fly the MD-81 with no passengers, 1200 lbs of fuel and crew weight, it is extremely different than flying with standard fuel load and passengers. Enough so that you can land, and take off, from the Nimitz. This is not as far-fetched as one may think. A good friend of mine is a 757 and 767 driver. Most takeoffs are all reduced power takeoffs, per airline spec's. He did a deadhead trip (empty) the other day, and just because he could as the captain, he choose to do a max power takeoff. He said you're doing 80 kts before you take a breath, and he was pulling the nose up through 30 degrees before deciding to pull the power back, as it just kept accelerating. The aircraft are built to the airline specifications, but within FAA parameters. The FAA specifies that at maximum gross weight the aircraft must be able to climb out over a 50 ft obstacle one engine (after V1). This means if you lose all other power and you've passed V1 (decision speed), you must be able to get over that tree that FG scenery planted just beyond the threshold. So now add back in the rest of the engines, dump the fuel and kick all the passengers off. Like Harry said, a passenger will never see any hint of the true performance. Airlines all have route planners, and provide a full flight chart to the pilots for each flight. This provides them with the best case for time and fuel burn. Accelerate at x power. Climb out rate, speed, and duration. Fuel burns to climb, cruise and descend. Descent rate, speed, power setting. This is all calculated on all factors - passenger load, fuel load, temperature, altitude, wind, etc. This is how the modern pilot tells you how many minutes to landing. It's not about 30 minutes, it's 27 minutes to touchdown. This is all planned out by the flight department before departure.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] Default Aircraft Candiates
Memories, heres an old article on we we were doing in the F28s and airfield surveys, whilst off topic, it may be of interest. http://www.airwaysmuseum.com/Flying%20Unit%20navaid%20cal%20article%201990.htm Item 8 -- (8) good low speed handling and go-around performance from very low altitude; This i clearly remember like yesterday, sitting in the jump seat at the end of a VASI approach test, under full power doing 180 turnback to 1000 feet, cows beside the airstrip just below us, running in all directions with their tails wrapped up over their backs. It looked like we were going to put the wingtip up their backsides. We thought it was a hell of a joke, but the farmer I assume was not impressed.
