Please read flightgear installations carefully! It explicitly says how to download on which OS and where the files exist once you download onto your machine. **newest mac users with Catalina, you may have problems with the simulator. I suggest finding a parter without the newest version of Mac OS. Those in dualboot on ubuntu, you can install flightgear from the app store (software center) that ubuntu has.

In the FlightGear Game Folder : game/flightgear/Protocol add the file generic_small.xml. The file is in the asset directory (in the code you download from github). Note: You may need to change the permissions for copying this file to the folder. In my computer the folder is at : '/usr/share/games/flightgear/Protocol'

Open the FlightGear app, go to settings and to Additional Settings write : --generic=socket,out,10,127.0.0.1,5400,tcp,generic_small
--telnet=socket,in,10,127.0.0.1,5402,tcp -
Copy fly.txt From the Assets folder to the same folder as the main.cpp.
You can change the content inside fly.txt according to how you want the plane acts. You can read the FlightSimulator - Clarifications.pdf and the hebrew explanation.pdf for a better understanding.
