The <code>-s</code> option passed to <tt>download_and_compile.sh</tt> instructs it to build the latest stable release of FlightGear. Use option <code>--lts</code> instead if you want the latest Long Term Support release (it may be older but possibly more stable). If you pass neither <code>-s</code> nor <code>--lts</code>, <tt>download_and_compile.sh</tt> will build the ''next'' suite, which contains the development version of FlightGear. For more details on these options, see [[#Release selection]]. | The <code>-s</code> option passed to <tt>download_and_compile.sh</tt> instructs it to build the latest stable release of FlightGear.

The command <tt>run_fgfs.sh --launcher</tt> starts the [[FlightGear Qt launcher|FlightGear built-in launcher]]. This is often convenient but not compulsory. Another way to start FlightGear could be <code>./run_fgfs.sh --airport=PHTO --aircraft=c172p</code>. There are plenty of other options, which are listed by <code>./run_fgfs.sh --help --verbose</code>. | The command <tt>run_fgfs.sh --launcher</tt> starts the [[FlightGear Qt launcher|FlightGear built-in launcher]].
