JSBSim also includes the following bindings: In 2015, NASA performed some verification check cases on 7 flight dynamics software including JSBSim (the other 6 being NASA in-house software). It is probably the only program of its kind whose code is free and with no intention of hiding how it works internally, which makes it very extensible. "FlightGear" For those who are completely unaware of it, it is a flight simulator created by an international group of volunteers, which has also been published as free software and open source under the GPL license. The following code provides a simple example of how to interface with JSBSim using the Python programming language: Providing jsbsim.FGFDMExec with the value None allows using the installed default aircraft data and scripts (in the example above we are using the script scripts/c1723.xml, one of the many scripts installed by default).
