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.

13b05c173e alias all the marked dirt runways to concrete. This isn't a good long term
solution, although it may have to do.  Most cards probably don't have texture
ram enough for an entirely new set of additional runway textures.

80b83ef603 Started new C182 panel with propeller knob and different-coloured
background.  It needs trim wheels (including rudder trim), etc. etc.,

different engine.

f9829eba75 Replaced old materials file with materials.xml, using the regular
property-file format.  This new format will simplify extensions later
on (including crash detection on forest and water surfaces, etc.).
There is also a DTD file for anyone with an XML editor.

632ac25426 Starting a new instrument, Bendix/King KT 76C Class 1A transponder.
This is a typical transponder for a Cessna 172R.

So far, only the background exists, but it's useful for filling in the
empty slot on the panel.

bf3fcc2f83 Yet another propeller model -- this one is custom-tweaked to allow the
C172R to hit some published performance numbers (including 122kt
cruise at 80% power, 8000ft ASL when the engine is leaned for
performance).  This will be replaced with a more accurate model when
we have data available.

3390000b98 JSBSim change: reduced Ixx from 5 to 1.8, based on a 1.67 Ixx for a

engine (at Jon's suggestion).

2c2238c296 Added keybindings for selecting a current engine, for changing magneto
position, and for engaging the starter.  Here's how it works:

1. To select an engine, use '!' (shift-1) for engine 1, '@' (shift-2)
   for engine 2, '#' (shift-3) for engine 3, '$' (shift-4) for engine
   4, or '~' to select all engines.  These bindings set the bool
   properties /sim/input/selected/engine[0],
   /sim/input/selected/engine[1], etc.

2. To decrease the magneto for the selected engine(s), use '{'.

3. To increase the magneto for the selected engine(s), use '}'.

4. To engage the starter for the selected engine(s), use SPACE.

Eventually, I'll extend this so that the throttle uses the selected
engine as well, and will perhaps even support engine selection in the
joystick bindings.  Right now, only engine 1 (engines[0]) is selected
by default.
