A new glider, the [[Glaser-Dirks_DG-101G|DG-101G]] from Glaser-Dirks, has been added to GIT. It utilizes a [[JSBSim]] FDM, tuned with data calcuated with XFLR5. This modell features winch start, aerotowing, a drag robot, water ballast and [[Livery_over_MP]]. | A new glider, the [[Glaser-Dirks_DG-101G|DG-101G]] from Glaser-Dirks, has been added to GIT.

==== BK 117==== | |||
Work on the BK117 helicopter has been started. The BK117 is a twin-engined medium utility–transport helicopter, produced in a coproduction between MBB/Eurocopter and Kawasaki. It uses the same rigid rotor system like Bo105, but is larger in size and has more power. | |||
It is quite common in the world and very often used by emergency services and law enforcements. | |||
The model features a realistic FlightDynamicModel based and calculated from NASA-reports, a detailed 3d-model with normalmap and reflection shaders, detailed rotor (thanks to Melchior!)and will be dynamically configurable in many variants. | |||
It is planned to make it realistic as it can be and good or even better than the Ec130 B4. | |||
Next steps are the interior modeling with a detailed 3d-cockpit. | |||
