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"

And with TD taking over from 1C Team for free who know how long it will keep going

Look, most of us spend several hundred $ for IL2 related hardware.

> SOW needs needs new GPU? No problem, but let me now how many gigs of RAM it needs, so I can upgrade to DDR3 as well if i have to.

> Lack of SA? You go and order a TIR.(Or build a FT, if you can)

So, yes, I think most of us are[would be] willing to actually spend a few bucks on add-ons.

just my $.02



You missed the point by a whole solar system.
