FlightGear Newsletter May 2025
We would like to emphasize that the monthly newsletter cannot live without the contributions of FlightGear users and developers. Everyone with a wiki account (free to register) is welcome to contribute to the newsletter. If you know about any FlightGear related news or projects such as for example updated scenery or aircraft, please do feel invited to add such news to the newsletter.
The new Visual Editor makes editing the wiki as simple as using a Word-processor, and even easier than using the forum as you don't even need to know the syntax for a url. Just hit the 'edit' link and start.

I wish you to invite you all FG'ers to the first ever " Bouncing Baskets" event for the Wednesday evening flight.
This event is based and inspired in the superb work in sport ballooning by HerbyW for FlightGear.
I'll provide you previous support to get familiar with the balloon and the whirlpool logic circuit.
Estimated flight time could be 1 h and a half to several days, weeks or months... The nearest to the destination, the winner.
Many laughs guarantied, balloon gin kana, easy and fun for all
