### Stable Edition

Stable is our version which contains features that are the most mature and most tested. This should be a reliable version for those users preferring stability over the newest features.
49
+
Stable is our edition that contains features that have been in the development version for a while and have therefore
50
+
been tested by a larger group of users. The Stable edition changes less often than the Development version and is recommended
51
+
for users who do not want to update their aircraft as often or require less frequent updates due to compatibility with
52
+
3rd party software.
