To chat with other pilots, go to the "View" menu and select "Chat" at the bottom of the menu. Note that the other pilots may not have their chat box open, so they may not see your messages.
To chat with other pilots, go to the "Network" menu and select "Chat" or "Chat Menu" at the bottom of the menu. Note that the other pilots may not have their chat box open nor chat messages enabled, so they may not see your messages.
NOTE: Multiplayer chat is not supported by FlightGear 0.9.10 or older.


The shortcut for chatting is "_" (underscore) and it brings up a small window where you can type. By default, other people's messages are displayed at the top of Flightgear's window for a few seconds, but it will appear for a much longer time in the window at View -> Chat. So if you think you've missed anything, go check there.
