Is it that difficult to submit a track to a server admin and get the offender banned? I don't think so and that's why you don't see many people doing such stuff.
I've never seen someone blatantly cheating on the few servers i fly on, but then again i'm only flying online sporadically. On the other hand, i do keep up to date on those servers' forums almost on a daily basis and i'd say that after years of doing so, i've maybe seen less than 5 documented cases of cheating.
It might be an issue on online tournaments, but on DF servers i'd say that encountering a cheater once every few months is a price i'm willing to pay for all the added content. Of course, it's a matter of personal opinion and how much it annoys each one, so i'm not going to try to convince anyone. I'm just saying that after flying a few hundred sorties and reading a few thousand forum posts, i've seen literally a handful of real cases with concrete evidence to back them up.
Maybe someone is circumventing the difficulty settings and flying around with wonder woman view enabled on the same servers as me and nobody caught him yet, but that's hardly a massive advantage compared to FM/DM hacks, especially if he can't fly properly...and he probably can't to be using such things in the first place, so he'll get shot down anyway, throw a tandrum and leave.
