Hi guys I'm busy creating a variometer for FlightGear. My instrument needs to be able to : 1. Display total energy (using some maths I haven't figured out yet) 2. Play sounds (audio cue) 3. Accept user input to its 2 knobs and 3 toggle switches. From what I've seen in FG I would have to

1. Display total energy (using some maths I haven't figured out yet) How precise is this energy going to be? Working out gravitational and kinetic energy is trivial; accounting for energy in the fuel not hard - but I don't think you'll be able to account for elastic energy stored in the
