MS Aerodynamic Model

[snake653]

Pete,

Thanks for an excellent piece of software, I have only recently bought and started to develop some software of my own using FSUIPC, and it is a great piece of kit. My question is do you or anyone know how lift is modelled in MS FS2004, do they use thin airfoil theory or something else?

Cheers

Andy

I don't know, sorry. I really don't know much about the actual simulation modelling in FS, or the graphics methods. There are experts around, but maybe not many among those who visit this forum. You could try the FS2004 Forum, or possibly there is an aircraft designers forum somewhere?

Regards,

Pete

Thanks anyway,

All the best andy.
