Sourcetrunk (Episode 021)

This episode is entirely dedicated to the power of open source software demonstrated with the beautiful, technically very powerful and fun flight simulator FlightGear. Flying planes is not for everybody, simulating the experience clearly is !

With MS ditching FS

What with MS saying they will not develop their flight simulation platform anymore this might be the next big thing. Although I hear X-plane is a rather good option in todays world.
