Angrypig finally managed to implement collision detection for JSBSim planes along with the joystick support, so we created a short test flight video with Cessna.
Here it comes.

This engine needs two things: lightmapping on terrain and use of sprites in the way the engine of Operation Flashpoitn: Dragon Rising does.
It's looking great!
It's strange how a terrain with so much detail still looks so boring. It's probably because there is only 1 texture used over the entire terrain and the terrain doesn't cast shadows onto it'self. Those are the biggest problems.
Nice work, you should use a UFO though, not a cessna!
just wondering, will space travel be available? also will there be city/ space stations? also will there be realistic water, terrain elements (such as water resistance, craters etc)?
oh and uh, nice graphics! but i forgot one thing, is it possible that you could make planes that when landed you can press a button and turn into a building? if you could implement something like that it would make rts/fps/tps hybrids awsome!
