Not counting the IL2 series "essential" upgrades for example FB AEP PF Pe2 etc, etc
Now condensed into IL2 1946
Everything else has been free and constantly "improved/corrected"

It's not the "free" thing, but the fact those upgrades exist at all.
Look, most of us spend several hundred $ for IL2 related hardware.

So, yes, I think most of us are
