FlightGear 3.4.0-6 under Fed 23: no alternative aircrafts visible

kaza · 05-06-2016, 09:52 AM

Hello!

I recently installed Fed 23 (KDE) and upgraded the Flightgear to 3.4.0-6.
When I started it, it opened with the standard C172p and when
I attempted to open "Aircraft center" I saw a prompt that it's only
a preview and not in active state and the lists of additional
aircrafts were empty (despite the directory Aircraft containing many
other aircrafts files).

Is there any way to use FlightGear with any other aircraft than C172p?

TIA,
kaza.

? Did you also install the ~1.7GB FlightGear-data ?

Hi knudfl, thanks for reply.

yes, I installed also the FlightGear-data:

Code:

<localhost>.../temp>rpm -qa | grep FlightGear
FlightGear-3.4.0-6.fc23.x86_64
FlightGear-data-3.4.0-3.fc23.noarch

<localhost>.../temp>ls /usr/share/flightgear/Aircraft

The data of other aircrafts seems to exist but the fgfs can't see it...

TIA for any ideas,
kaza.
