A few years ago, I helped squash a bug that occurred when reading in data with
generic IO (I think that my patch was included in the code). At the time, it
was reading in just a float. So, when using it to read in position, the
doubles for lat/long were being cut (rounded or truncated?) and it

Is there any way to display instruments when using any of the outside views?
For example, can I place an altimeter in the corner of the chase view? I have
tried changing some of the view and instrument properties, but it seems like
the panel is always hidden, except for the actual inside view.

I have a script that is giving me permission errors when it runs. The scrip is
in data/Nasal. It contains this line:

I can successfully run this version of FlightGear from the command line, so the
problem must be with the launcher. I am not sure the best way to report this,
so I am starting here.

Instead of trying to put together a list, you should watch a video of George

Legal with a transponder and appropriate calls to ATC
A while back I was trying to read in lat/long and found a lot of jitter.
I finally found that FG generic was actually only able to read in floats. At
that time I found that the designation in the format was just being used for
output of variables. But for input they were being put into the ac

I am interested if there is a way to make a 2-D panel visible when not
