OK, there's another release ready that should fix most (all?) of the
bugs reported so far. This time, it's just a tarball of the files
that have changed. Drop them into your FDM/YASim directory. There
are some aircraft changes as well, most of which are required for the
newest code. Be sure to

OK-- This ones easy to fix,
Just in case someone is wondering, this is a definition that eluded me
for a LONG time: what, exactly, is "mixture". Mixture is this: the
ratio, by volume (!) of the liquid fuel and gasseous air being drawn
into the cylinders. That's why it has to be adjusted with altitude --

What is the procedure for adjusting mixture with a constant speed prop
such as the 310 has?
In the c172 I had been tweaking for max rpm and then backing off a
touch to the rich side.
When I adjust mixture on the c310 engines, the only guage that moves
is the temp. Shouldn't the manif

Have you added the command line parameter --aero=c310 ?
Has anybody noted that the 3D plane model in the external view disappears
when we are on air?

Can somebody clue me on the order in which the config files are parsed?
I want to move some stuff like instrument options out of preferences.xml
I also want c172-set.xml to have some utility to it. Right now it's empty.
The particular order I'm interested in is where gets picked up.

Erik,
It appears I forget to commit the required file to the repository, but
it looks like John must have done so in my absense today. I think if
you do a cvs update on the base cvs tree, the --aircraft=c172 option
will now work.

Strange, I can't compile clean flightgear CVS without including
options.hxx in fg_props.cxx. How come other people are compiling happily
without this patch?

Are you specifying --config=c172? You shouldn't need to because it's the

Hi,
This is an asi for the c310 (260knot). Let me know if any of the calibs are

Was your engine RPM stuck at 1700? There is a version skew problem
with the c310.xml file.

performance of the YASim model. It's the turbo variant.

I just noticed the base package and JSBSim are out of sync.
This was found after i got a core dump while starting FlightGear (I
think Christian noticed the same problem).
Could you sync with the latest JSBSim CVS again Curtis?

Nothing of the sort. But Andy appears to have a reasonable approximation for

That's a 310R, with a longer nose, more powerful engines and (I
suspect) turbosupercharging, so there may be some minor differences on
the panel. Nice pics, though, and a gr
