One major additional software is the actual interface for launching an executable of FlightGear. For most of its early life FlightGear was only run through command line interfaces. However, the FlightGear Launch Control has been included with the ''[[FG launcher]]'' front-end since 0.9.3 in 2003. ''[[KFreeFlight]]'' is a launcher/front-end for KDE. ''FGTools'' is an alternative windows launcher front-end. ''FGKicker'' is a GTK+ based front-end. | One major additional software is the actual interface for launching an executable of FlightGear.
