** Right now, FG will crash if any terrain is in view. So you need start over the ocean - or otherwise make sure no terrain is rendered e.g. by disabling TerraSync, and starting at a location for which you don't have terrain downloaded, or just temporarily rename your TerraSync folder. | ** Right now, FG will crash if any terrain is in view.

** Aircraft: The C172P is confirmed to start without crashing right now. To do a mid-air start from the [[FlightGear Qt launcher]] you need to specify a location over the ocean by typing in lat/lon coordinates and then specify an altitude. <code>Qt-Launcher > Location tab > Location search bar > enter lat/lon coordinates over ocean separated by a comma e.g. 30,-40 > press enter</code>. <code>Move the altitude toggle to enable it, and enter an altitude in ft or m</code>. CTRL+u works to gain altitude. You can also try the video assistant which can be selected from the launcher. Try a clear sky as cloud rendering is broken right now. Right now the in-sim menus may not render. | ** Aircraft: The C172P is confirmed to start without crashing right now.
