I would try google on FlightLinux to see if its status is
on the web. It may be hosts on sourceforge.org, look there
too. If FlightLinux does fly it will probable be in an
amature radio or university built satelite.


I'm a big fan of open source etc. But even i would be very carful
using it any of these applications. The problem is that too many
people have writen the softwear. Some parts are writen very well, some
are not. As you say, licence fees for these things are petty cash.

This begs the question-- perhaps a little OT. How is flight softwear,
flight tested?
