I dont know if it is a realistic effect, but, since some cvs versions ago,
the compass is stalled most of the time, so it is impossible to know the
real magnetic heading.

Hi Guys
I am just wondering if anyone is looking at the problem with the compass
readout.It reads from -12 to 348.
Also how big a job would it be to have the direction to the vor stations
included as part of the property tree.
Cheers
Innis

This is because of the skid-slip indicator problem with JSBSim. Some
code in stream.cxx loc

I find that most noticable with the C310 -- I wonder if it's because
the accelerations (etc.)
Whatever the case, our pilot acceleration term still seems to be wrong
(perhaps by a factor of about 32?).

Hmm... I don't see this, but I compile with
// newauto.hxx
#define DEFAULT_AP_HEADING_LOCK FGAutopilot::FG_TRUE_HEADING_LOCK
instead of
//#define DEFAULT_AP_
