Hi Stephen,

I currently don't have a joystick here (and never tested it before),
but do give it a try:
Just start the sim with the additional joystick option, something like this:

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/jsbsim/lib ./var/BOOZ2_A1/sim/simsitl --js_dev
/dev/input/js0

Depending on your joystick it might be mapped to some different device
(check with dmesg) or have a look in /dev/input/by-id/<your-joystick>

Regards, Felix
