To be financially successfull a wwii sim, with the usually in this forum expected detail level, would need about 2$ for a ground object, 50$ for a map and 50$ for each more complicated model (plane or ship).
When i see the emotions running high for spending 15$ - to 70$ for a whole packet, i really can't see any customers for that.

I was not aware 777 is close to being bankrupt. I'm not talking about a full blown WW2 sim from them. All they have to do is start selling WW2 aircraft.
Begin with a base package. Map and 2 or 4 adversary aircraft. Even the current France maps could be used. I would have no problem spending 10-15 bucks for a high quality WW2 fighter for RoF. I still expect 1C to deliver the goods at some point though. Just not sitting on the edge of my seat anymore.
