Everyone laughs at my Su 35 flight model cos I let the pilot fly way
outside the envelope covered by all the other flight simulators you see
on Silicon Graphics demos ( not real ones I hasten to add in case I offend
someone who simulates every atom around an X31 at 600 Hz. )

I really need to put some quaternions into the equations of motion so
it will go nicely aerobatic - but I don't know the first bloody thing
about them.

What should I read to help me - I just ordered "Flight SImulation" by
J.M. Rolfe but it's taking for ever to come.

ANy advise etc...
