I am not as concerned about VAC as others in this thread. I just provided a link where they can report the issues if they think there are ones.

I asked ATAG guys above if they have VAC on. It looks like they are not concerned with this issue either.

Some interesting reading on VAC http://forums.steampowered.com/forum....php?t=2284833
And in general http://forums.steampowered.com/forum...splay.php?f=35

The VAC system detects cheats using cheat signatures, and should a cheat be detected by VAC the offending player will receive a VAC ban.

... VAC is an automated system and server administrators may not impose a VAC ban.
Also forum users advise to buy new cheats and send them to Steam support/admins to have their signatures included in VAC.

Thus I think it works like this:
1) Steam collects data on modified dlls from servers and user reports.
2) These modifications are sorted to cheats / not cheats based on some criteria, algorithms and user statistics.
3) Cheat sigs are included into VAC.

Thus we have to report cheats to have their sigs included faster. I am sure game tracks contain enough data to tell the devs if aircrafts within 20 km radius from the player use modified FMs. Post them in a separate thread and file a request to devs in that thread http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showthr...615#post377615 if you are concerned with this issue.
The devs probably will never see this thread we are writing in now.
