Other issues and challenges

• It's a world wide project - different legal authorities

• People have different expectations from a simulator

  • Some care about radios, others IFR, or FDM, etc

• Some simulation code benefits from 64 bit addressing

  • Larger files can be mmap()ed, avoiding fseek()
  • But need 64 bit drivers for modern OpenGL cards

• Discrepancies between data from different sources

  • Such as highways going through runways and lakes

• Some obstacles missing, such as airport and radio towers

• Latency is critical to multi-pilot and multi-chassis usage
