Testing

Flying Pig

It looks like FlightGear is the simulator I can use. X-Plane costs almost $400 and I do not think it is a good choice at this time. Hopefully, FlightGear will be more than sufficient for virtual testing.

Well! I've managed to install FlightGear 2.6 on Mac OS X 10.6.8 and it technically works... To function well, the app needs a lot more power than this little laptop can dish out, but it is a start in that I know what I need eventually--MORE POWER !!! LOL
