...just to make sure I'm not making something already made or something someone else is currently modelling. I started modelling Aero L-39 Albatros in Blender - it goes pretty well but I think I'm gonna need some help with the FDM - I won't yet be there in a couple of day's time I think but if you have some hints/general advice I'd appreciate it all.

Hi,you should subcribe to the FlightGear developers mailing list and put your message there http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/flightgear-develI am pretty sure you'll find the right people who can help you there.RegardsGeorg EDDW
