Yes although FSX photo scenery (Horizon or Just Flight) is great from about 3000 feet and you can actually recognise where you are.

And if you hit a tree you stay hit!

Flying low over FSX scenery makes you want to hit a tree, although I think FSX has other good points and decent addons. If the new IL-2 game engine survives and improves, it has the potential to be a very good base for civilian user made content, like aircraft, and map improvement mods. The IL-2 game engine was initially designed to evolve with technology over the next ten years or so, unfortunately the engine can't start evolving until its finished, and it appears it may be done, before its finished. lol

Yes, I think is done too and either there is no one left to admit it or we are being ignored/neglected.

I think its very close to being done, but I don't think its done yet. If they stop deleting negative speculation in these forums, then I will know for sure its done. Unless the moderators deletion of the threads are unsolicited, but when that happens they usually just "lock" the threads not totally delete them.

Define "very near future".

I know, I know, but the way they walked away from the simple problem of FMs in CoD has left many of us staunch supporters feeling betrayed. There was no attempt to amend the Release Candidate for some of the simplest problems. The quick release on Steam and the deliberate suppression of speculation has inevitably made people suspicious.

Who was the moderator that deleted IvanK's thread? Perhaps he could explain. To avoid infractions, that's a suggestion, not a demand.
