* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nzCcqtkTUT8 This excellent video] proves that ''Howto'' Oscar (we already mentioned him last month) does more than creating howtos. Together with Don's extremely detailed simulation of Gatwick Airport (EGKK), Oscar's video angles make this an interesting and pleasant video to watch.

===Bombable updated===
The [http://www.flightgear.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=5742 Bombable air combat add-on to FlightGear] received a major update in June. Bombable now has these features:
* Multiplayer dogfighting with Sopwith Camel, SPAC VII, Fokker DR 1 Triplane, and A6M2 Zero
* Explode/burn when you crash
* Exceeding aircraft limitations (excess g-forces, overspeed) adds damage to your aircraft and finally leads to shutdown/crash
* Shootable/bombable moving tanks, jeeps, ships, and aircraft that catch fire, burn, explode, sink, crash, etc.
* AI scenarios that allow you to use FlightGear aircraft for air-to-ground, air-to-sea, and air-to-air combat missions against these targets
