I assume you don't mean you have to write the software but rather 
construct a set of tables which represents the aircrafts behavior?

There is also:

http://www.jsbsim.org
http://jsbsim.sourceforge.net/aeromatic.html
http://www.holycows.net/
http://www.lissys.demon.co.uk
http://ntrs.nasa.gov/

What aircraft did you have in mind?
