Depending on your technical expertise you may choose the [[Git]] development version of FlightGear, which typically has more features and can be required by some of the latest developmental aircraft, but can be unstable and is more complicated to get for non-Windows users. In general, the development version is not advised to the average user, but if you are willing to do some testing there is a nightly build for Windows or Mac available for download from the [[FlightGear build server]], and a Ubuntu PPA updated daily. These days (March 2021), nightly builds are available from [https://download.flightgear.org/builds/nightly/ download.flightgear.org]. If you are using a Git version controlled copy of FlightGear, you may choose to synchronise your aircraft using the version controlled [[FGAddon|FGAddon aircraft development repository]]. | Depending on your technical expertise you may choose the [[Git]] development version of FlightGear, which typically has more features and can be required by some of the latest developmental aircraft, but can be unstable and is more complicated to get for non-Windows users.
