FlightGear: Open Source Flight Simulator

FlightGear is a free flight simulator project. It is being developed 
through the gracious contributions of source code and spare time by many 
talented people from around the globe. Among the many goals of this 
project are the quest to minimize short cuts and "do things right", the 
quest to learn and advance knowledge, and the quest to have better toys 
to play with.

The idea for Flight Gear was born out of a dissatisfaction with current 
commercial PC flight simulators. A big problem with these simulators is 
their proprietariness and lack of extensibility. There are so many 
people across the world with great ideas for enhancing the currently 
available simulators who have the ability to write code, and who have a 
desire to learn and contribute. Many people involved in education and 
research could use a spiffy flight simulator frame work on which to 
build their own projects; however, commercial simulators do not lend 
themselves to modification and enhancement. The Flight Gear project is 
striving to fill these gaps.
