I've downloaded both FlightGear-2020.3.4 & 2020.3.5. When I tried to open the dmg I got this message from both versions. The following disk images couldn't be opened. Reason no mountable file systems. I tried to contact the developer thru his email address. But it came back as address unknown. Has anyone else had this problem with these version?

Je suis incapable d'ouvrir l'application. Si je clic sur le bouton "FLY" l'application disparait de mon écran. Je vais essayer de re télécharger l'app à nouveau!
(Translated by MU) I am unable to open the application. If I click on the "FLY" button the application disappears from my screen. I will try to re download the app again!

I have an iMac G5 with OS 10.4. When I started to play this game, I noticed that it takes a while to load, and the response time is high. It also froze and program completely shut down right in the middle of it. I'm not a stupid guy either, but I can't even get my plane off the ground!
