One area I always thought SoW could exploit is the vintage civil aircraft market that FSX users have traditionally enjoyed. Imagine flying a Dragon Rapide from Croydon to Dover in Oleg's Britain.
I kind of hope it doesn't go that way. It would be both annoying to me as a player as well as a potential mission or online scenario builder where a portion of my possible audience was restricted because they haven't subscribed to the micro transaction model. It gets worse when you're trying to be competitive and the top level aircraft are not available unless more money is paid. I'd rather pay $30 for the latest update and get a dozen aircraft than $5 for one.

May not make sense except when I factor in that every time I see this model used ... it always costs more to own everything.

LukeFF is the person who did some great research and then model for Il-2, that was for the first time present in a combat sim.

And just to remind about what I told above... to think about what I said in my answer...
1. modeling surfaces of different materials, visually and emulating physics of burning and hits
2. complex damage model - early sample - glass.
3. copy of real aircraft internal structure for modeling of damage itself and its visual effect
4. modeling of aircraft systems that are important for the the life/durability of aircraft in a combat (damage-able and shown just part of them)
5. precise of each cockpit for many aircraft in one sim
.......
I can continue... to model aircraft for our sim, is more complex than for the MS add-ons. And any who will try will need to learn really more than for the creation of MS aircraft.

+1

I also prefer having real AddOns covering a certrain scenario over hundreds of micro addons. Like the last three Addons we had ( Pe2, IL10 and the 1946 stuff ). That was a fair amount of new stuff for a good price.
