The official '''FGAddon''' aircraft hangar is a version control repository, hosted on [[FlightGear|FlightGear's]] [https://sourceforge.net/projects/flightgear/ SourceForge infrastructure], and used for the day-to-day development of FlightGear aircraft. FGAddon is an {{wikipedia|Apache Subversion|noicon=1}} version control repository. These are aircraft that are not part of the base package (the aircraft that are included in the base package — the [[Cessna 172P]] and the [[UFO]] — are kept in the [http://sourceforge.net/p/flightgear/fgdata FGData] repository), but are tagged with each stable release for the [http://www.flightgear.org/download/ FlightGear download pages]. | The official '''FGAddon''' aircraft hangar is a version control repository, hosted on [[FlightGear|FlightGear's]] [https://sourceforge.net/projects/flightgear/ SourceForge infrastructure], and used for the day-to-day development of FlightGear aircraft.

When using a stable FlightGear release, it is best to obtain aircraft directly in the Launcher or eventually from the [http://www.flightgear.org/download/ FlightGear download pages]. However, as stable releases from FlightGear version 3.4 onwards are tagged and present within the FGAddon repository, the Subversion tools can be a convenient way to obtain individual aircraft or the entire official hangar of approximately 500 aircraft. Also, if using the [[FlightGear build server|lastest nightly releases]] or a [[Building FlightGear|self-compiled version of FlightGear]] from FlightGear's [http://sourceforge.net/p/flightgear/_list/git Git version control repositories], using FGAddon allows the aircraft to be updated to the latest development versions. | ||
