I've gone to the mpmap site and cannot make heads or tails of the 
documentation.  I don't even know where to go to get the server address.

It seems awfully complicated.  Maybe back to something simpler would be best 
for the likes of me.  MS Flightsim I suppose.  I miss Fly!

Keith,
Welcome to flightgear!
For moving maps you have a couple of options. Firstly there is a
 program 
called atlas, which you can compile yourself but is also in the repos
 of at 
least one linux distro (ubuntu). Alternatively, point your browser to 
http://mpmap02.flightgear.org to see other players participating in 
multiplayer mode. This only requires about three more command line
 options to 
be set and no software installation. For details check 
http://www.flightgear.org/Docs/getstart/getstartch5.html#x10-600005.3
Multiplayer mode also gives you the advantage of seeing the 
other "multiplayers" as you fly!
Explore mpmap. Be sure to check out the "nav" tab at the bottom which
 will 
reveal a host of goodies - nav aids, weather, etc.

Hope this helps,

Drew
