... Really, the FDM takes a very small amount of computation time. Most of the time is spent in the display routines, IIRC. That is agreed. But i was making a point about how 'rocking' the ac when the engine/mags are off (and 0 wind) cause the 'display' to be re-done - that is a small

The latest stable Plib (1.4.2 I believe) should also work (It does for me). It shouldn't be necessary to keep checking out CVS Plib. It takes about 2 minutes (maximum) to check out and build on my machine. I always do it to avoid (and rule out) any build problems. This is one reason why I no
