..flightgear-flightmodel is a list to develop etc the flight dynamics
models (FDM), which decides "how it moves" and not "how it looks."  

..the exception to my rule above is when the FDM is run too slow, 
the modeled aircraft will more or less visibly oscillate between 
2 different positions or attitudes.

..but let's stay here until we know this is a flightgear developed 
bug, or an upstream bug, or an user's usage issue.

..if this is a genuine flightgear screen shot, how exactly 
did you manage to get it????? 

..oscillating between the 2D and the 3D panel is one of the 
things in FG that I am 100% sure of should _not_ happen.

..fgfs commandline used, which video card, which video driver, 
which operating system, which version, which cpu, ram etc.
