4 years since the previous major release (2.0.0) FlightGear reaches its third major version that happens to be the most amazing ever. These last 4 years were full of hard work and contributions that resulted in now having a real time shadows and lighting system with the Rembrandt renderer, a very advanced weather simulation system, a fully-working multiplayer and a massively improved terrain with region-specific textures and a more realistic object placement.
