$FG_ROOT is refered to as the main directory of FlightGear, containing the so called base package (aircraft, scenery, GUI files etc). When running FlightGear from a command line, you can set $FG_ROOT via --fg-root=path/to/root. In FGRun, it is set on the paths page, previous to the aircraft selection page.

On Mac OS X, $FG_ROOT is not installed automatically. See New to FlightGear for an installation manual.

Common paths

  • Mac OS X: Applications/FlightGear.app/Contents/Resources/data/
  • Ubuntu: /usr/share/games/flightgear/
  • Windows: %ProgramFiles%/FlightGear/data/
    In Windows the locale is set using SET in prompt.
