Sat Jun 28 14:00:00 2014 dmitry_rAATTopensuse.org
- Update to version 6.10.03. Changes since version 6.09:
* Created a new binary .xfl projet file format. Replaces once and
for all the awful .wpa format
* Removed the option for independent wing analysis
* Introducing type 5 polars for the analysis of variable sideslip
* Disabled the horseshoe vortex method for stability polars, for
beta-polars, and whenever sidelip is defined.

than with x-axis - slight impact on viscous results
* Enabled LLT analysis for all Plane objects
* Removed the option for symmetry in 3d analysis
* Corrected the bug in type 4 plane analysis-elevator and fin
coefficients were incorrectly calculated

arrays are now allocated for the size of the largest model
loaded in the session.
