36 * This class implements the Facade design pattern (GOF p.185) to provide
37 * a single, (deceptively) simple flat interface for the FlightGear
40 * To help cut down on interdependence, subsystems should
41 * use the BFI whenever possible for inter-system communication.
44 * - add selectors to switch the current plane, throttle, brake, etc.
45 * - add more autopilot settings
51 // Initialize before first use.
54 // Reinit if necessary.
