Spare-time FlightGear developer since early 2006. Currently inactive due to old computer (bought 2008) and, to some extent, children and brain cancer (the last one is bad for a long life but doesn't impact my current time for FlightGear).

Some what current projects:

  • Tools for multiplayer shared state for scenery objects. Available in FlightGear 2.6.0 and later. See Nasal/scenery.nas
  • Experiments with tools for celestial navigation. http://www.gidenstam.org/FlightGear/Celestial_navigation_in_fgfs/ The RAF mk.9 bubble sextant is available in FlightGear 2.6.0 and later in the Aircraft/Instruments-3d/RAF_Mk9_bubble_sextant/ directory. (And for 2.4.0 in the Aircraft/Short_Empire/Instruments/BubbleSextant directory.)

Progress on these projects is currently slow but I am working on them.
