'''FlightGear Launch Control''' ('''FGRun''') is a graphical frontend for [[FlightGear]],. It is included in officially distributed binaries for FlightGear, even though it is not technically a part the FlightGear program, like several other frontends (see also [[FlightGear related projects]]). FGRun allows one to choose options more easily than with the [[Command Line Parameters|command line]].

{{FGCquote
  |We now have a [[Integrated Qt5 Launcher|built-in Qt launcher]] that&#39;s shipped by default on Mac and will be used on other OS in the coming release. FGRun will be gone by then, therefore I&#39;m closing this issue. [...] FGRun will be gone with the next release of FlightGear, in favour of a built-in launcher. Therefore, I&#39;m closing this issue to prevent anyone from spending a lot of time on fixing things in FGRun.

The wizard appears to the user when FGRun is started. The first time, when no path are set, the first page is shown, otherwise, it jumps directly to the second page, but the first one is still accessible by hitting the "Prev" button.
