This makes it possible to "remote control" FlightGear by using the telnet protocol. This can for example be used to change environment settings (weather, time, visibility etc). But you can also remotely fail equipment: Use the telnet/http interface to unset the "serviceable" flags on the affected instruments and systems. All you need to write is a little script (perl,python, netcat) to do the 25-to-1 multiplex/demultiplex operation. | This makes it possible to "remote control" FlightGear by using the telnet protocol.
