The American legal system is copyright obsessed, they recently changed the law at the request of Disney to extend copyright to 95 years for corporations with an option to renew after that.
Ironically it goes completey against the original views of the US founding fathers who basically believed copyright should quickly evolve to public domain after the creator has had a reasonable chance to benefit from their ideas.
Personally I believe if Americans start to see their own favorite historical aircraft disappearing from games and the model shelves in hobby shops because of the stupidity of litigious US lawyers trying to make a few quick bucks well thats America for you
Meanwhile ... here is the top of MY wish list for a future patch
