Aeromatic is a tool for inputting a small set of parameters, and will then output a JSBSim FDM.
 
Note that things like position of fuel tanks, gears and pilot have to be modified by hand after output.
 
There are 2 versions of the programs. The old online Aeromatic. And the newer C++ Aeromatic.
 
= Online Aeromatic =
 
Usage: Browse to the online Aeromatic website, and input a small number of inputs. It will output a simple but complete JSBSim FDM including engine.

How it works: [http://jsbsim.sourceforge.net/aeromatic-doc.html Link]
 
It is made by David Culp.
 
= AeromatiC++ =
 
AeromatiC++ is an attempt to make the outputted FDM from Aeromatic more detailed by Erik Hofman. It is made in C++, so it must be downloaded and run locally.
 
The program is now part of JSBSim source repository, and is compiled as part of Flightgear nightlies for Win and Linux (but separate download).
 
''I find AeromatiC++ very useful, especially for making JSBSim engines. For example it predicted the Viggen fuel consumption almost spot on. -Necolatis''
