There was an interesting film on the 1st of May on Discovery regarding wildlife in the zone. Though, there is a danger of further contamination if so-called Red forest will be set ablaze (according to what they say). But obviously, this is not what bothers most of the ukrainians now.

Agree, the frame and aerodynamics are hardly upgradable, unlike equipment and gear, that is why it is the same old airplane. Pretty much this is being done with An-32 -> An-132

From the other hand - is there a way to operate airfoils without a keypad? From what I remember, redefining keys didn't work either. Or do I miss something here?

I need to investigate how will it behave under linux. On the side note: person who is computerex on skype as I suspect, did not respond to me.

Can you be more specific, please?

I have sent a Skype request with a message. Waiting for response.

Moreover, I am running an Orbiter under wine (linux), and I am not really spending much time with it because I am a student. I study for civilian aircraft designer/constructor/engineer, and my skills in CFD (openfoam) and 3D modelling (blender) are comprehensive. I would gladly contribute to...

We still have atmospherial flight. Being unable to control airfoils makes me unable to use XR gliders, for instance. And as stated in a message above, I am currently unable to design such plugin myself, and yes, it seems reasonable to contact the author.

No, I didn't. But if he posted a code, I assume it was meant to be an open source.

There are reasons for such a plugin to exist.

I am taking a quote from the http://www.orbiter-forum.com/showthread.php?p=118061&postcount=9: The point behind this was to emulate the joystic control by mouse, allowing us to control airfoils (which is not possible using keyboard numpad (which is lacked on laptops anyways)) and rcs. In the...

Well, it is obvious that we are allowed to, but for me it is more a question of "how to"... My C++ experience is miserable, and I never seen Orbiter SDK or whatever is used for making all those .dll-related things. Most of my Orbiter experience goes for star system creation and custom planetary...

Well, 225 is indeed unique in its freighting capabilities... But it was made for unique tasks in mind. 124 makes more sense as a general-use freighter, a rival to C-5. And on behalf of the flight models - I think that there are not that many parameters that are vital for one. Generally, it is...

I always wondered how precise the flight model for aircrafts in general for orbiter is. BTW, why An-225 instead of An-124?

A clip about time, universe, future and humanity. https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=FMJNta-okRw - russian. https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=DynLBcmOTGs - french. Makes me want to cry.

I see, thank you. Hijacking a thread no more.

To not to start a new thread, I'd like to ask how would people consider a stripped from default files version of Orbiter, which would offer a different star system, space and aircrafts, vehicles, robotic units, all new default textures and sounds, pre-set of MDFs and other stuff to create a...

Thanks for making it clear, mate!

It is a bad habit of mine to use "why?" or "what for?" anytime new idea come into my mind. It has wrecked about a year or two of my life.

But...what did we forget underwater?... Likewise, what did we forget in space?
