 An aircraft in FlightGear has two main development areas:
-* 1 - The '''[[Flight Dynamics Model]]''': composed of two main models most people use, either JSBSim or YASim.  Or the lesser used model UIUC.  They specify how the aircraft reacts based on aerodynamic data and facts such as wind, terrain and control inputs.

 All images in FlightGear should be sized to powers of two (eg. 64*64, 128*256 or 16*1024). Since FlightGear 1.9, images no longer have to be saved in the .rgb format. Right now .png is most common used among FlightGear developers.
