Really ???
Didn't know that. I've had my head down and ass up developing these gauges
using FS98Class as I thought it was the only one of it's type around :-)
Thanks for that, Gene.

BTW, last night I came across an interesting program for jet engines. It is
a simulator and you input your own flight parameters and it spits out most
of jet operating data. Check it out. It may be of use to someone but I found
it very interesting.
