Just remember to change the paths of course.
I have no experience in paragliders, so
I'm a bit concerned about the physics model of flightgear. Are there
certain
physical limitations built into the sim, that makes paraglider physics
impossible to model? I'm thinking particularly about the pendulum effect.
Of
course, everything is possible when you have access to the source

Right, but that's roughly equivalent to writing

Good point. I was just pointing out that sometimes code changes are
required for special needs, such as in the icing studies done using
UIUC-Larcsim. I would think we ought to be able to model a paraglider
within JSBSim as it is, currently, but I haven't had time to think

Hi all,
(I'm new to this list, my apologies if this is the wrong forum for my
questions.)
I am a paraglider pilot who have been toying with the idea of modelling a
paraglider in a flight simulator. I made a model in X-Plane first, but had to
give up because X-Plane was too limited to be able
