Note: FlightGear is highly configurable through editable XML files. You are free, and encouraged to, make changes to aircraft flight models and any other feature you wish to change for your personal satisfaction or to share with other FlightGear users. The flight model is not defined in a binary file. It is easy to modify (given enough knowledge). Although the install is binary, most of FlightGear's system is open to configuration through XML files and NASAL scripting.

=== Does FlightGear come with a printed manual? ===
You are invited to read "The Manual" online at:
http://www.de.flightgear.org/Docs/getstart/getstart.html
or download a PDF for viewing with Acrobar Reader or printing:
http://www.de.flightgear.org/Docs/getstart/getstart.pdf
"The Manual" is not always up to date with recent development but provides a good start for beginners. Everyone is welcome to contribute to the manual, at least little experience in LaTeX makes the task easier. Please contact the authors of the manual if you would like to add corrections or whole chapters.
