Not one made model with tearing gears and flaps, burning engine, and instrumentation which makes realistic mistakes - prior me.
I think you'll find that there have been planes with pretty realistic failures and emergency procedures much earlier - if you care to look.
Not one made model with many different FDM instances - key part of space flight sill - in it prior me.
This could well be the case - so what? Nobody did automatic generation of thermals before I did. Nobody made a viable instructor station before TorstenD did. Nobody made a native graphical launcher before James did. Nobody made an effect framework before Tim did. Nobody made a realistic computation of where celestial objects are before Durk did. Nobody had a scripting language in FG before Andy did.
It's not like you haven't done anything, but it's actually not *that* much compared with what others have achieved and continue to achieve. You've found a nice way of using JSBSim for stages - I've figured out half a dozen of other nice and equally useful ways of using it for all sorts of things (I'm particularly proud of the RMS arm solver). These are sort of neat, but really both our efforts pale against the effort of writing JSBSIm in the first place. You really have to see it all in perspective.
Vostok-1 is an order of magnitude better than the X-15 was, but the Shuttle is again an order of magnitude more detailed in terms of spaceflight support, visualization and failure modeling. That's how development tends to go.
All that was just taken, while me was pushed off community with themes closing. I was told "space is not needed".
The way I remember it, you issued your wishlist, people didn't do it, others tried to explain to you why space isn't a priority for FG, you didn't want to listen.
But let me make this very clear: Nobody pushed you away. Nobody refused to collaborate with you. All that happened is that FG didn't accept your leadership. You chose to talk down on the spaceflight support we did manage to come up with because you couldn't get your grand vision. It's you who elected to never collaborate with anyone on anything - not me, not Hooray, not anyone else of the people who are talking to you here.
