I'm pleased to announce the release of the SimuLab Release Terra. Main features of this release: true support for global scenery, first functional avionic elements like HUD, MPCD, Compass, artificial horizon (ATT), vehicle preview and import tool, configurable mission and vehicle setup and of course first insight and impression of the technology.
This is not a major release, it's not a bug free release but "accidental" one. In coming 1-2 months i won't be able to proceed on SL development and would like to share the development results "AS IS" with interested audience. Sad, but i didn't get the collision detection and height above ground elements polished on time. This release will primarily give the moder community the first insight and and chance to test their aircraft with the engine. AND the most important feature is the full integration with the latest JSBSim version.
The moders willing to contribute to SL and/or Flight Gear projects may get started with developing and testing their aircraft with this release. SL provides extensive performance logging and allows to compile accumulated performance data into MS Excel table for analysis and plotting. Please proceed to this forum thread for more details.
Special thanks goes to Tom for providing his great aircraft models for simulation, Aron for his excellent self created sound tracks and of course to Kevin for providing terrain tile service, website and wiki maintenance and of course valuable discussions.

Thanks and Regards,
Edward Leigh

Aircraft may be stranded at airfields or left at repair shops by owners who can't pay their bills. State personal property laws govern the disposition of abandoned aircraft. Authorities can declare an aircraft abandoned if the owner cannot be found or does not respond to a notice of sale within a specified period.

Obtain a bill of sale. The Federal Aviation Administration requires proof of ownership for all aircraft registrations. If you purchased your aircraft at an auction or a judicial sale, ensure that the auctioneer or sheriff who conducted the sale signs the bill of sale. Include a statement verifying that the sale complied with local laws. If you cannot provide evidence of ownership, the FAA may accept a signed affidavit with supporting documentation in lieu of a bill of sale.

Conduct a title search on your aircraft. Search aircraft records through the FAA, or hire an attorney or aviation title search company to conduct the search for you. A title search discloses the chain of ownership and any liens or outstanding mortgages against the aircraft. Without a clear title, you will have difficulty selling the plane or proving ownership in a civil court proceeding. If you discover a problem with the title, file paperwork with the FAA to resolve any existing claims.

Thanks and Regards,
Edward Leigh

More information would be good. ]]> Fri, 23 Jul 2010 00:36:32 +0000 http://forum.globalaircraft.org/toolkit.pl?type=goToMsg&msgid=2398 flight sims [by: f4shado] http://forum.globalaircraft.org/toolkit.pl?type=goToMsg&msgid=2291 F6hellcat wrote: View Post #2288
its pritty hard to make a realistic flying game for the PC (or any other system i might add) because your "vision" is limited to a 2D spot. and the "cockpit" is your keyboard/mouse/controller.

I agree. when trying to make a flight sim, you're not sure if you got all the dynamics and characteristics right.]]> Tue, 21 Jul 2009 08:32:10 +0000 http://forum.globalaircraft.org/toolkit.pl?type=goToMsg&msgid=2291 flight sims [by: f6hellcat] http://forum.globalaircraft.org/toolkit.pl?type=goToMsg&msgid=2288 Fri, 10 Jul 2009 14:29:38 +0000 http://forum.globalaircraft.org/toolkit.pl?type=goToMsg&msgid=2288 Glass cockpits [by: f6hellcat] http://forum.globalaircraft.org/toolkit.pl?type=goToMsg&msgid=2287 Flying on Glass Cockpits
