It's the Fouga Magister, from GRTux's site.
It is not included in the base package, but like Dave Culp's and Gary Neely's
aircraft, IMHO ...some of the best models designed for FlightGear and used by
many in FlightGear... are not included in the base package. While some may
disagree with me
I believe it makes the most sense for the featured aircraft to be both
commonly recognizable and present in the Flightgear repository. It
might confuse some people if they go looking for the featured aircraft
and didn't find it in the official downloads page. The Concorde and
the 747 make fine
I'm wondering what is the significance of the curious white or yellow
parallelogram seen near the Flightgear lettering in some of the most
recent batch of suggested images? This may be what Syd was asking
about as well.

I was thinking a bit again. Would it be any better to say the Open

necessarily mean open source.

I am willing to defer to the general consensus, but for me Free Flight
