This entry inspired me to write this javascript implementation to test my high-speed GIF encoder, which I used for animations in the pre-canvas era. It needs keyboard arrows to navigate.

I tried to reverse-engineer the code to understand how the model in the simulator worked, only it raised more questions than answered. I did uncover that the author had flight simulator writing experience, so the mechanics were truly obfuscated. Carl, amazing piece of craftsmanship, tipping the hat!
