Oh, was I complaining? Just forget it then. I guess nobody else cares
that it takes more than a few minutes just to connect to the server. I
won't either.
This can't be true for all the mirrors, which machine(s) are you having problems connecting to. Please be aware that ftp.flightgear.org has a limit of 30 users. It could very well be that your ftp client is retrying the connection in the background and it takes a few minutes for an open slot to become available?
I have nothing against bit torrent. If you want to set it up, I'd happily make a link to it from the FG downloads page.

Curt.

To my knowledge you're the only one who is complaining - right ? Which bandwidth do you expect ?
