WOW There ! ... That Eclypse is a fine piece of work too.
As for the cockpit, there is still a lot t be done in OT and the Flight-simulator stuff part of it do do the cockpit a "full-click" thingy anyway, but no one is holding a person from getting it in and adjust at least the flight-characteristics, while keeping all the needed stuff for later, when the possibility is there to finish it to the bitter-sweet Sim magnificence of a birdy thing.
There will be a bigger boom sooner or later anyway.
As for the flyers, contacting the freeware creators about the model and possible documentation about few details about them (like meshes and pivot settings - operation details of the concrete aircraft and stuff), having a little friendly chat might be a good idea - maybe they even jump into helping ya get it into OT whyte some better JSBSim settings. Ill try that on your place.
Also - Liqid cristal dispaly avionics !!! We need to re-make the MIG to some fancy like that new sexy 35-ver or the nice little Su-34 Swan lady ...
... HMMM ... now that im thinking about it - its OT where talking about here. We should just jump straight to a Tu-95 Intercontinental bomber ( I know that Black-jack is supersonic, but we need those world-laudest turbofans, so the polar-bears can hear us !
) and make a Air-refuel vehicle, so we can take a damn whole weekend flight-trip trough the Atlantic and back again on military ration packs and coffee.
Thall be da best weekend ewer ... what ya think ?
