    David Culp - 2018-04-12

    I've just completed a large commit with several updates:

    1) A new "Nav" tab was added to the aircraft controls section to support nav related switches
    2) An "FPM" switch added to toggle the Flight Path Marker
    3) ILS added, by default the ILS is for KLAX runway 25L
    4) ILS is raw data only - still no flight director
    5) The Connect button is now disabled while JSBSim is running
    6) Added camera directional control buttons to the viewer - left, right, center, up, down
    7) Updated CesiumJS to version 1.44 - this deprecates the previous viewer code
    8) Ini file and Docs updated to support the above

    The Cesium update was required since the terrain feed for the previous version was about to be deprecated. The newer CesiumJS version has several API changes that obsoletes the previous HTML and Javascript files. I'm only keeping the newest Cesium code on my web server, so the older viewers will no longer work. The new imagery from Bing Maps is more detailed, however the refresh rate of the viewer has gone down noticeably.

    I've added a fresh screen shot from today showing the latest updates.

    This might be enough to require a version increase, escpecially since the older viewer will no longer work.
