The flight model in the future
« on: May 20, 2000, 06:32:00 PM »
was just making a list of stuff not yet added to AH FM and physics model. not a rant, or a "we need this asap" kind of post, more one of curiosity.

Ground effect

Compression

Gyroscopic precession (one of the 4 elements of torque)

static & dynamic stability? (not sure if it is present)

 All too often I find myself impacting the ground with deadly effect. Is this going to be fixed?

I vote for wind.  
Also, more "optional" engine controls, like mixture, and blower controls would be nice, but only if you could set them to automatic if wanted.
