4a2f192fb1 Change the idle MP to reduce idle power a bit. This is basically a
hack, and should be replaced with a sane idle model that has some
physical justification.

d3cca375dc Basically complete support for piston engine startup, including power loss
due to single-magneto operation.  Seems to work.

2f00a7970c Minor mixup. Engines that are off have a manifold pressure equal to
ambient, not to _rho0, which is the air density of the "calibration
environment" (typically sea level).

6b10d8b128 Scaling "idle" MP to 6 inches or so is all well and good, but not if
the engine continues to develop 20% power.  Rescale the output power
accordingly, so idling aircraft stay put.

ad79ee4897 Added minimal support for magnetos, so that engines can be shut off.
The starter isn't working yet, so the engine just springs to life.

5b84ae51a5 Initial revision of Andy Ross's YASim code. This is (Y)et (A)nother Flight
Dynamics (Sim)ulator.  Basically, this is a rough, first cut of a "different
take" on FDM design.  It's intended to be very simple to use,
producing reasonable results for aircraft of all sorts and sizes,
while maintaining simulation plausibility even in odd flight
conditions like spins and aerobatics.  It's at the point now where one
can actually fly the planes around.
