Hi, Curtis, well we went quite offtopic, the real topic was, why some people don't want "Taylor's" ( is this his real name?) competition... ;-) I just was surprised as I understood you said that we aren't far away from fully FAA-certificable, but I could remember from older dicussions the thin

The project my company is working on will use FG v1.9.1 (with additions) to seek FAA Certification. But there are several things lacking in the "production" release--the instructor's station is the main thing. I haven't read the FAA Advisory Circular that governs certification of these thin

I totally agree with Peter Clemenko, that it would be an error to accept any money from FPS. It is not an fair sponsor and the way the money will be divided will more create a divide between the developers than build it into a team of freely cooperating people. Greetings Arthur On Mon, Oct 5, 200

With all due respect FPS, it would be better off if you were to submit any modified code you make back INTO FGFS. adhering to the GPL V2. and for the FG devs, if FG is under the v3, ether switch it to LGPL or the v2, as that way you have some control over your code.

Hi All, To further enhance the Flight Gear project we would like to begin a monthly developer's competition. We are asking you to give ideas for what could get developed over the next month.. This must be attainable, measurable and worth getting created. A couple of rules: 1.
