..uh-oh, http://cloudcaptech.com/download/FlightGear/0.9.2/ means they 
_distribute_, no?  AFAICT, they need to put the FG sources somewhere
like http://cloudcaptech.com/download/FlightGear/0.9.2/source/ too, to
comply with the GPL's Section 3:
(http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.html#SEC3) 
"3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,
under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of
Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following: 

a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source
code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2
above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or, 

b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to
give any third party, for a charge no more than your cost of physically
performing source distribution, a complete machine-readable copy of the
corresponding source code, to be distributed under the terms of Sections
1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,

( c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer to
distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is allowed only
for noncommercial distribution and only if you received the program in
object code or executable form with such an offer, in accord with
Subsection b above.) )".

..guideline questions in http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-violation.html
"Is source code included in the distribution?
Is a written offer for source code included with a distribution of just
binaries?"
