Hi,
I'm new to flight gear. I had downloaded the source code and builtthem usingcygwin in Windows.
It is working fine and looks good.
I would like to contribute to flightgear. My area of interest would be creating 3d models and terrain.
Could anybody help me proceed in these areas?
Thanks.

I've just checked in some changes to DC-3 gear configuration, and ground
handling should be a bit more reasonable: the plane isn't quite as bouncy,
and the main gear no longer compresses up to 1 m (!!!). I can now manage
wheel landings, which the old gear configuration wouldn't allow, though I

Hi!
I've been playing around with the autopilot and the waypoint list, and
discovered that the user-interface (and probably the code behind) lacks
some features that I'd like to have (reordering/deleting wp's, using
airways, etc.).
Now that's not something that should live in an autopilot, but
