It is speed range dependent. If you follow the recommended profile of
speeds and flap selections, the pitching

This can be a good thing, for all their associated features that we
hate.
When I started my flying lessons, and the JSBSim and YASim 172's were
both having problems, I decided not to be prejudiced and to go back

Lowering flaps does cause a very nasty pitching moment during

Should we make it nastier? Is there a human factors scale anywhere
that has Nasty on it? :-)
Hmm, nasty enough?
Eff = (16*h / b)*(16*h / b)
Oe = Eff*Eff/(1 + Eff*Eff)(where 0 = Oe = 1)
D = q_infinite * S * (CDo + 0e * ( (CL*CL)/(pi * e * A * r) ) )
D: decrease in drag

One American Nasty unit =~ 0.789 Metric Paris Cabbies.

For what it's worth, I'm involved in a side project that is using
FlightGear + a commercial C172 flight dynamics model + cockpit
hardware to hopefully achieve an FAA (and JAR) certified sim by late
summer / early fall. The commercial fdm will run as a seperate
program [...]
Hmm, _this_
