Pottier P130 UltraLight
There is a new aircraft in the ultralight field! This project has successfully converted an X-PLANE aircraft to FlightGear, and has now made the first release. It is now contained in three major websites: FGMEMBERS, FGADDON, and a private development repository ([1]).
(Important: the URL of the private development repository WILL change, so DO NOT download from this link if you want to use it with GIT, and keep it updated)
Cessna 182S Skylane
The c182 project aims to develop a very high quality Cessna 182S Skylane for FlightGear.
It can be downloaded from https://github.com/HHS81/c182. See also the forum thread.

Announcing Thai translations (WIP)
Parnikkapore has started translating wiki articles to Thai. Because most Thai flight simulator users are already familiar with FSX,I'll concentrate on articles helping users to make the switch.
The first page being translated is Th/New_to_FlightGear.
Please note that even the page above is a work in progress. It is being completed one third heading per day on average. Contributions are welcome!
BELOW IS THE SENTENCE ABOVE IN THAI. IF YOU CAN READ THIS,SCROLL PAST THE SQUARES.
Parnikkapore ได้เรื่มแปลหน้าบางหน้าบนวีกีนี้อย่างช้าๆแล้ว หน้าแรกที่กำลังถูกแปลอยู่ที่ Th/New_to_FlightGear หน้าที่จะได้รับการแปลจะช่วยท่านในการเปลี่ยนผ่านจาก Microsoft Flight simulator X ให้ง่ายดายและประหยัดเงิน ใครที่สามารถแปลภาษาอังกฤษได้ ก็มาช่วยเราแปลได้นะครับ
ระหว่างที่รอเราแปลหน้าต่างๆ Parnikkapore ได้ทำชุดวีดิโอที่จะตะลุย FlightGear ไปพร้อมกับคุณ ดูได้ที่ ช่องยูทู้บของ Parnikkapore

FlightGear logos
If you want some graphic elements for your FlightGear-related site (such as a hangar or YouTube channel), please feel free to visit FlightGear logos for a repository of logos. And if you have some art skills, please don't hesitate to contribute with your own design creations.
Screenshots
The FlightGear project always needs screenshots, which show features that were added since the last release. These should be of good quality, especially in content and technical image properties. It is therefore recommended to use the best viable filter settings (anti-aliasing, texture sharpening, etc.). More info at Howto:Make nice screenshots.
Screenshot of the Month
Entries for this month's best screenshot can be submitted to this forum topic. Be sure to see the first post for participation rules. For purposes of convenience and organization, after all the entries have been submitted, a new forum topic will be started containing all shots in an easy-to-view layout. The voting will then take place there. Once the voting has finished, the best screenshot will be presented on this page.
