In the future FGCom surely will extend further and surley will get a “Speech to Text” capability in order to also use the Text-based standard ATC-routines inside FlightGear (see also [[Development]]).
You can even use it in models without radios - just use the standard FlightGear menu --> Equipment --> Radio Settings.<br>

Adding User-Informations for installing, using, maintaining FGCOM on different platforms.
 
Since the new version Nov.2008 the usage of FGCom is picking up rapidly – but so are also the confusions of many “Computer-Non-Professionals” trying to use it. We hope to help users by adding many more user-specific informations, like e.g. installation on different Operating Systems, testing, operating, informing, and “how to get the most out of it”. The existing more tech. Informations will remain but will be restructured. We decided to do it online in the “wiki-fashion” so that others can benefit as soon as possible.
This major update will take about a month (or 2).
