<!--l. 49--><p class="indent"> With so many commercially available flight simulators, why would we spend

thousands of hours of programming and design work to build a free flight simulator?
|
||||
Well, there are many reasons, but here are the major ones:
|
||||
<ul class="itemize1">
|
||||
<li class="itemize">All of the commercial programs have a serious drawback: They are made
|
||||
by a small group of developers defining their properties - often quite inert
|
||||
and not listening too much to the customer. Anyone ever trying to contact
|
||||
Microsoft<a
|
||||
name="dx5-5002"></a> will immediately agree.
|
||||
</li>
|
||||
<li class="itemize">Commercial PC flight simulators usually try to cover a market segment as
|
||||
broad as possible. For obvious reason, most of them want to serve the serious
|
||||
pilot as well as the beginner and the gamer. The result is a compromise. As
|
||||
<li class="itemize">All of the commercial simulators have a serious drawback: they are made
|
||||
by a small group of developers defining their properties according to what
|
||||
is important to them and providing limited interfaces to end users. Anyone
|
||||
who has ever tried to contact a commercial developer would agree that
|
||||
getting your voice heard in that environment is a major challenge. In contrast,
|
||||
<span
|
||||
class="ptmbi7t---109">FlightGear </span>is free, there is no need for such compromise; it just can be given
|
||||
the properties its users want. It defines itself via building.
|
||||
class="ptmbi7t---109">FlightGear </span>is designed by the people and for the people with everything out
|
||||
in the open.
|
||||
</li>
|
||||
<li class="itemize">Building a flight simulator is a challenge to the art of programming.
|
||||
Contributing to that project makes you belong to those being able to
|
||||
contribute to serious, ambitious and advanced software projects.
|
||||
<li class="itemize">Commercial simulators are usually a compromise of features and usability.
|
||||
Most commercial developers want to be able to serve a broad segment of
|
||||
the population, including serious pilots, beginners, and even casual gamers.
|
||||
In reality the result is always a compromise due to deadlines and funding.
|
||||
As <span
|
||||
class="ptmbi7t---109">FlightGear </span>is free and open, there is no need for such a compromise.
|
||||
We have no publisher breathing down our necks, and we’re all volunteers
|
||||
that make our own deadlines. We are also at liberty to support markets that
|
||||
no commercial developer would consider viable, like the scientific research
|
||||
community.
|
||||
</li>
|
||||
<li class="itemize">It is fun. Not only is it fun to write the code (. . . or documentation. . . ) but
|
||||
also to belong to that - temporarily changing - club of clever people on the
|
||||
net having discussed, struggled and finally succeeded in creating that project.
|
||||
Even reading the <span
|
||||
class="ptmbi7t---109">FlightGear </span>mailing lists is informative and fun for itself.</li></ul>
|
||||
<!--l. 75--><p class="noindent">The above-mentioned points make <span

<li class="itemize">Due to their closed-source nature, commercial simulators keep developers
|

with excellent ideas and skills from contributing to the products. With
|

<span

a huge impact on the project. Contributing to a project as large and complex

as <span

deal of pride in knowing that we are shaping the future of a great simulator.

</li>
|

<li class="itemize">Beyond everything else, it’s just plain fun! I suppose you could compare us
|

to real pilots that build kit-planes or scratch-builts. Sure, we can go out a

buy a pre-built aircraft, but there’s just something special about building one

yourself.</li></ul>

name="dx5-8019"></a>. For the hang glider, throttle can
|

be use to fly to gliding altitude or Ctrl-U can be used to jump up in 1000-ft
|

increments. Try your hand at the unstable Wright Flyer and don’t stall the canard!
|
||||
Considerable up elevator trim will be required for level flight. In general, the
|
||||
aerodynamics are probably very close to the original Wright Flyer as they are
|
||||
partly based on experimental data taken on a replica tested recently at the NASA
|
||||
Ames Research Center. Also included are two more models, a Beech 99<a

|

Marchetti S-211<a

|

and based on simpler ”linear” aerodynamics. More details of the UIUC flight
