I'd like to think that HT would at least consider the points that we're trying to make here.  I think he's reasonable enough to make a change when it makes sense.  :)

That 10 lb. block of butter is not going to help you stay on the runway, mister! :D

What exactly are you not happy with?  
What constitutes a ditch, capture or landing in a GV?

:lol that has happened to me more times (especialy with the new oil on the windshield thing) i think if any part of ur plane is on the runway :ie wingtips,it should be a landing.
    Also,it would be great to have a single key to hit to exit ur plane,its time consuming to get ur mouse icon on the tower to exit the plane,the dot ef is just as bad
     I think move  the tower button to the bottom of the list and make it bigger,i have gotten vulched alot!!after landing while trying to get outta my plane moving my hand from my stick to the mouse,:( maybe make it hitting -shift e- or -alt e- or somthing to that effect  to exit plane would be an improvement and faster:D  just a thought   .Sawman
