FlightGear to show where the VRP and CG are. Maybe three lines
through the point and parallel to the axis of the model. I think it
would help aircraft design

It occurred to me (during communications with Mathias) this morning that one
downside with the VRP is the seeming rotation about the nose of the aircraft
in the view. If either:
1) The offset from CG to VRP, or
2) The CG position itself (being effectively the actual physical rotational
center)
