* Unfortunately the pressure alarm will sound at startup since the envelope isn't initialized in a pressurized state. The ballonet inflation levers are preset to maximum inflation so the operating pressure is usually reached within 60 seconds. (Solved in FlightGear/CVS)
* The engines sometimes behave oddly, in particular in landing configuration (high RPM and varying blade angles). The engine sound is also too loud and a bit strange as well. Work in progress.


* The mooring force calculations are sensitive to long frame times (i.e. very low fps), which can cause FlightGear to crash during startup or make the airship  start in a bad state.

* Obsolete copies of mp_broadcast.nas (e.g. from the WildFire or Air racing add-ons) could cause problems. The up to date version now resides in <tt>$FG_ROOT/Nasal/mp_broadcast.nas</tt>. Remove the others - there should be no need for them.
