Don't they call that 'radar' in real life? :) (The very fast,
lightweight submodels being microwave photons in that case)

2007 is behind us, with the FlightGear project proudly being displayed
on the International Flight Simulator Weekend in Lelystad, and a lot of
comments from (sometimes not-knowing) simulator enthousiasts that we are
well underway of providing people with a viable alternative to Microsoft.

It is only a matter of time until so
What would be the added value of this as opposed to hooking up two
sticks to the same machine running fgfs? I'm not sure whether that will
work as well under Unixes, but there is no trouble in using that on
Windows machines, simply assign the axes of both sticks to the same
controls. I've been

It was the prop torque issue after all. Pretty weird it also occurs on
the 1900D, since those two props are supposed to cancel each other out.
Since I currently don't have t

I've been fiddling around with the Generic protocol and managed to
connect a few addons meant for Aerowinx PS1 to an instance of FlightGear.
Screen's here: http://i83.photobucket.com/albums/j282/Stoney3K/ps1fg.jpg
The connection was made letting FlightGear pretend as an instance of

Hi guys,
I'm running the stable plib build of FlightGear 0.9.10 on Win32 and I've
got trouble with my flight controls.
On normal hands-off flight, my aircraft seems to consequently bank to
the left. I've already double-checked my control
calibrations and these are all dead center, the flight co
The FlightGear session responsible for doing tower will do nothing more
than display aircraft in the multiplayer session, flown by other
players. FlightGear currently has no code for AI traffic like in FS2004,
and most of the fanatic simmers do their flying online, with real people
manning towe
I think it's pretty possible. You're gonna need extra software for the
radar screens, but I think you can already connect FlightGear to a
multiplayer session as an observer. Position yourself on the place where
your tower is, and the outside view is pretty much what you need. For
