Tried>to modify both to no avail.(1) you can use real weather: --enable-real-weather-fetch with whatever turbulence there is at the starting airport at the moment.(2) you can set wind and turbulence (see $ fgfs --verbose --help)--wind=DIR@SPEED --> Specify wind coming from DIR (degrees) at SPEED (knots)--turbulence=0.0 to 1.0 --> Specify turbulence from 0.0 (calm) to 1.0(3) you can use the property browser in the "File" menu, and write down any of your favorite settings in ~/.fgfsrc or system.fgrc:--prop:/environment/turbulence/magnitude-norm=5--prop:/environment/turbulence/rate-hz=2or a configuration file loaded with --config=file.xml in xml notation (with tabs/spaces instead of equal signs):<?xml version="1.0"?>========================5============2============

Thanks for your reply with such a very comprehensivearray of methods.Tom

>Thanks for your reply with such a very comprehensive>array of methods.You are welcome, but I should still have been more verbose. Generally, you can find all possible options (excluding those settable via --prop:, of which there are thousands) if you run FlightGear in a console window (MSDOS window in MICROS~1) like so:$ fgfs --verbose --helpBut I noticed that --wind isn't fully explained there. It only says --wind=DIR@SPEED, but both DIR and SPEED can also be ranges separated with colon. The --wind parameter in the following example means: wind coming from directions varying between 20 and 90 degree at 5 knots with up to 20 knots gusts.$ fgfs --turbulence=0.5 --wind=20:90@5:20The manual page is more complete (on Linux/Unix: $ man fgfs)
