    In our cockpit work, we are now at the point of integration testing =
in depth.  Switches and indicators are all wired, analog axis controls =
are working, displays are wiggling, our first gauge needle is turning =
and the EPIC/C++/VB code to make it all talk are in first pass form.  =
Which brings us to making it all work *right*.

    =20
    Question for the Falconites hereabouts: has anyone mapped out =
operation of the shared memory area and the various data elements in =
it??

    =20
    For example, it seems well known that the Master Caution lightbit =
doesn't update if the button is not drawn on the screen at the time it's =
state should change.  We also see "Engine Fire" and "Hyd/Oil-Press" =
eyebrow lights update sometimes but not all the time.  Landing gear =
light bits don't seem to update ever.  That sort of thing.

    =20
    I know Erwin has a small list but there appear to be other things =
that aren't listed there that we are running into.  Is there somewhere =
else I should be looking for known issues??  We can work it our =
empirically of course but if someone has already mapped these things =
out, it would sure save a lot of time. ;-)
