GReat job! This is what I'm trying to do to car simulators - use real
physics (suspension/tire friction etc.) to place the car, instead of
just putting it on the ground and rotating it when the player press
"turn". About time somebody does it to flight simulators as well! Would
be really interesting if the planes actually act realistically, even
when pushed (stalling, spinning etc.). 

Works great on my computer, except that the "aileron" (or how you spell
it) is stuck to -1.000, so the plane keeps spinning unless I press "right"
to keep it straight. I'm just using the keyboard, have no joystick.
