{{Main page/Leftbox|title=Aircraft, the fundamental part of flight
  |contents=Without '''aircraft''', no flight simulator! Aircraft development is one of the fundamentals of developing a simulator. Contributing is fun and can be done at all levels (of difficulty).
}}
{{Main page/Leftbox|title=Rating aircraft statuses
  |contents=All the way back in May 2011, we addopted a new status-rating system for aircraft. So far, only a few have actually been rated, as can be seen in the list 'hockenberry' set up at [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0ApzphjA4w05ndF94Y2F0bzJTbHQ5QTJXZXJRcUVRbWc&hl=en_US Google Docs]. If you're an aircraft developer and your aircraft is/are not on the list, please consider rating their status. All you'll need to know/do is described at [[Formalizing Aircraft Status]]. If you'd just like to get started contributing to FlightGear, this would also seem like an excellent way to get started.
