Caution  This launcher is unmaintained and may not work properly. It is anticipated to no longer work at all in OS X version 10.10 "Yosemite" and beyond (see ticket #1521). For an alternative, see FGo! or FGx, among others.

FlightGear can also be launched via the command line (Terminal.app) from the same binary distribution, e.g.

cd /Applications/FlightGear.app/Contents/Resources
./fgfs.sh

FlightGear Mac OS X Launcher is a graphical front end for FlightGear, included in official Mac binaries of FlightGear 0.9.10, 1.0.0, 1.9.0, and 2.0.0 through 3.2.0 releases. The launcher allows one to choose options more easily than with the command line.
