My Mac spec is Currently OSX Version 10.6.8
MacMini (Mid 2010 Model: Macmini 4,1)
2 .4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
Memory 8 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
Graphics NVIDA GenForce 320M
Currently running Flight Gear Version 3.2 (=the highest compatible version for this OX S)
Am upgrading system to new one above version 10.6.8. Currently am running Flight Gear Version 3.2 (*=This is the highest compatible FG version that works with the OS X system currently running on my Mac mini.)
I've read here that some versions of FG do not run well, or at all, with certain Mac OS x system versions. Am afraid to install a new OS X that may not run FG. Thus
My question:
Need anyones advise Which Mac OS X would be the best system to choose for FG? Which would run FG the best?

i thought i'd share this tidbit from the developers' mailing list...
James Turner wrote:FlightGear is available for download on macOS, versions from 10.7 and upwards are supported, on Intel-based desktop and portable Macs. You can also build FlightGear yourself on Mac, using the freely available Xcode tools from Mac, and some additional libraries.
