=== 2018.3 ===
The FlightGear development team is delighted to announce the v2018.3 release of FlightGear, the free, open-source flight simulator. This new version contains many exciting new features, enhancements and bugfixes including usability improvements to the launcher, improved scenery for Hawaii and the Arctic island of Jan Mayan, Italian, Chinese and Russian translations, better visuals for AI and MP aircraft. This version was released on 6th December 2018 and as always is available from [http://home.flightgear.org/download/main-program/]. See the changelog at [[Changelog_2018.3]]!


After introducing the scripted releases four times a year, the FG development team decided to have a discussion to compare this experience with what we had before, and the result of this is that we want
* less changes of the default airport
* make one of the four yearly releases especially stable
This stable release is planned to be the fall release – so you can expect this release to be especially well tested.
