There is an interesting new addition to [[FGAddon]] and the FlightGear Project: a dragon. Made by Erik Hofman, and inspired by a personal project, it demonstrates the diverse capabilities of FlightGear in terms of aircraft (or flying things). As well as a [[JSBSim]] [[FDM]], it also sports [[ALS technical notes#The exhaust flame effect|ALS flames]] to simulate the breathing of fire. You can find out more at the [http://forum.flightgear.org/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=27814 forum thread]. Currently, it can only be obtained via FGAddon (see [[FGAddon#Obtaining aircraft|FGAddon § Obtaining aircraft]]). Below is a video of the dragon in flight:
