+{{cquote|I've seen the use of simple simulation within a simulation, where performance data is being calculated. It was not within JSBSim, however. This is an interesting prospect. Nobody has ever done this, up to now. My initial reaction was pessimistic. However, the flight control components within JSBSim are fairly capable, and you are permitted to define arbitrary functions. So, my guess at this time is, yes, you should be able to set up JSBSim to calculate *some* performance data. It may be a lot of work, but it should be possible. <ref>{{cite web |url=http://sourceforge.net/p/jsbsim/feature-requests/29/?limit=10&page=1#8ce6 |title=JSBSim Issue#29: performance database/prediction
