The T4T crew is working hard to make it all work. We are still looking for people interested in "adopting" objects to model like aircraft!
Over the last few days the Potez has had a really exciting flight model adapted to it. This is for a biplane mind you....not been done correctly with JSBSim as far as we can tell!!
Other discussions you may have seen in our ~almost~ daily meetings is about ships and damage! Follow along closely.... It will only get MORE interesting from here!

The T4T crew is presenting its first works of flight modeling. This package is used on FlightGear's existing 3d model. Please download the package here.
You will need to have FlightGear downloaded and installed already. Extract the package into the "Aircraft" folder as is...don't change any file names. This is same across all operating systems, Linux, Mac, and Windows.
Don't take launching the Spitfire as a walk in the park or with any lack of respect. Review the notes submitted by an actual Spitfire pilot. It is telling as how our flight model should be! That pilot story is here:

(Added 1/3/2012)
Further evidence of what the Spitfire pilot stated in the previous link is shown in the below photo. Notice the position of ailerons, flaps, elevator, etc while mid way through a take-off run. Don't take lightly the attention necessary getting in the air!
