693b963bfb Added flag "allow-toggle-cockpit" so that 3d/2d toggle is not attempted for
aircraft that do not have 3d cockpit configured.  Toggling is done with the
"c" key.  Note also that for now, since the 3d models don't have a "small"
panel defined, the "s" key is disabled if "allow-toggle-cockpit" is true.

f468d9362d Jim Wilson:
These are the updates for the View manager properties.  Removed the last of
items (within the viewer/viewmgr) hard coded to view number.  Added support
for per view configuration of ground level nearplane value.  Tower views look
very nice with little or no z-buffer problem in the models.  Pilot offset
dialog can be used to move eye in all views.

39bfe1a71b Set the default aileron trim for the JSBSim Cessna 172 to -0.055.
This is sufficient to keep the wings level in cruise at 3000 ft, 2200
RPM; the value will have to change as we make changes to the model.

Note that a stock Cessna 172 does not have an aileron-trim wheel
inside the cockpit; to set the trim, you actually bend a sheet of
metal by hand when the plane is on the ground.

0c4eb61e7c C172 with highly experimental, unfinished 3-D cockpit mockup using
Andy's virtual-panel support.  This will give a first taste of flying
with a 3D cockpit, but there are many caveats:

1. Clicking on the instruments doesn't work (waiting for a fix from
Andy).

2. The instruments rotate with the 3D cockpit but they don't tilt with
it (also waiting for a fix from Andy).

3. The orientation is incorrect when the view is not straight-forwards
and the plane is not flying level (waiting for a fix from me, but I
don't understand matrix math well enough).

4. The 3D interior is fairly ugly right now.

9c71600d1f Addition from Jim Wilson
Jim sez:

This file contains the xml and updated rgb for an APR button on the
 autopilot.  It can be used to lock on to the glide slope on an
 ILS aproach.
  As it stands now the NAV locks onto the NAV1 localizer and the APR locks
  on to the NAV1 GS (if it exists).  I think (and I'm not quite sure) that on a
  real autopilot (like the KAP-140) the NAV button will lock on to VOR signals
  and the APR is used for locking to localizer/ils for both axiis.  But without
   having a manual and knowing exactly how this should work, and making further
    changes to the autopilot code, this slight modification will make it easier to
     lock onto a glideslope on approach.
