What do you think (It's a condensation of bits on the website, with a bit
about the show added)?

The FlightGear flight simulator project is an open-source, multi-platform,
cooperative flight simulator development project. The goal of the FlightGear
project is to create a sophisticated flight simulator framework for use in
research or academic environments, for the development and pursuit of other
interesting flight simulation ideas, and as an end-user application.

Users include University of Illinois who are using FlightGear as a platform
for aircraft icing research, Iowa State University who are using FlightGear
to retrofit old simulator hardware, Aeronautical Development Agency,
Bangalore India, where FlightGear is used as as the image generator for a
flight simulation facility for piloted evaluation of a fighter aircraft
flown from an aircraft carrier. In addition FlightGear is being used by many
end users, and is particularly popular as a training aid for instrument
flying qualifications.

At Linux-Expo the FlightGear team hope to have a Westland Wasp (kindly
donated by the Fleet Air Arm Museum) linked to a FlightGear simulator to
demonstrate the flexibility of the FlightGear application, and allow members
of the public to try it first hand.
