* The '''Delft University of Technology''', the Netherlands used FlightGear for their ICE project. The goal was to design, test, and evaluate computational techniques that can be used in the development of intelligent situation-aware crew assistance systems. Using methods from artificial intelligence, ICE focused primarily on the data fusion, data processing and reasoning part of these systems. <ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.kbs.twi.tudelft.nl/Research/Projects/ICE/index.html |title=The Intelligent Cockpit Environment (ICE) Project |last=Ehlert |first=Patrick |date=18 January 2005 |publisher=TU Delft }}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=http://mmi.tudelft.nl/pub/patrick/Ehlert.P.A.M-GAMEON2002.pdf |title=Recognising situations in a flight simulator environment |date=November 2002 |author=Ehlert P.A.M., Mouthaan Q.M., Rothkrantz L.J.M. |accessdate=18 April 2012 |publisher=SCS Publishing House }}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.kbs.twi.tudelft.nl/People/Students/D.Dragos/back/ice/index.htm |title=The ICE Project |author=Datcu Dragos |date=January 2003 |accessdate=8 May 2012 }}</ref>

* For studentproject Daedalus, the Technical University of München uses FlightGear to optimize the flight characteristics of a zeppelin as well to simulate its performance. Another goal is to simulate prerecorded flights from a real model for further analysis. <ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.daedalus.ei.tum.de/index.php/de/mach-mit-mm |title=Mach mit ! - daedalus}}</ref>
