You can download the "MAC OSX Binary" from the [http://www.flightgear.org/Downloads/binary.shtml#mac FlightGear download-center]. The current version of the code does contain the FGCom.  
You can download the "MacFlightGear"-Application from the [http://www.flightgear.org/Downloads/binary.shtml#mac FlightGear download-center]. The current version of the code does contain the FGCom and works for OSX >= 10.5. (with lower OSX versions you will end up with a generic "bus error" message).


But '''you do need OS X 10.5''' as prerequisite. With lower versions you will end up with a generic "bus error" message!
Maybe something for experts: In case you installed FlightGear GIT OSX version or you want to compile your own FGCom you can do as follows (tested on OSX 10.5.8/Intel):
 
1) You need '''plib 1.8.5''' installed on your system (see [[FlightGear Git on Mac OS X]], you can install plib via MacPorts)
 
2) '''Download latest FGCom source''' with (note: you do not need the whole FGCom GUI, but the FGCom source and a patch)
* <nowiki>svn co https://appfgcom.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/fgcom/trunk fgcom</nowiki>
 
3) '''Download [http://code.google.com/p/fgcomgui/downloads/detail?name=fgcomgui-fgcom_01192010.diff&can=2&q= this patch]''' (You will find a description [http://code.google.com/p/fgcomgui/wiki/Linux_Installation#Patching_FGCOM how to run the patch] here)
 
4) Go to folder fgcom/src and '''replace''' original 'Makefile' with this [http://terra.sablonier.ch/OSXFGCOM/Makefile.zip changed Makefile] (this link may change soon)
 
5) To compile and install fgcom type in terminal 'make' and 'sudo make install'
 
In case you get no errors -> '''First follow all the [[FGCOM Testing]] here!'''
