Re: Flight gear very hard for MAC users

Hi,

Go visit the page below for two of your questions - read-only file system and how to install zip files.
http://macflightgear.sourceforge.net/home/documents/users-guide

For avoiding crashes, you may want to try this one:
http://macflightgear.sourceforge.net/a-patch-that-prevents-fg-200-from-crash-on-launch-is-available

FYI.
Mac OS does support zip files.

Best,

Tat
