I Wonder...

... What if a group of say, rich individuals, we're generous enough to donate to HTC

Think it'd bring production speeds up :D

Electronic Arts.

Buy the game.  make lots of promises of improvements and upgrades.

Fire the entire staff and kill the game.

Happy?

If I were rich, I would probably try to sponsor a new plane :)

Actually no I don't think it would change anything.

HTC is a small group by design, HT learned from his mistakes.
No matter how much money you wave in front of him he's not going to go back there.

He's always going to keep the shop small and very very tightly knit.

So no I don't think it would effect much.

I think the group of rich individuals would be flying the real thing, instead of the game.

Well not like ''hey here's some money now go PROSPER!''

But, would any funding makes thier jobs any easier you think? Or is it just a matter of tediousness & time.

I'm not allowed to fly anything no matter how much money I have... so wasting my money on AH would be the only way to go  :D

I wouldn't try to buy me in... or to get them hiring additional staff...
Only a very discreet, but massive donation to guide their next plane selection.  ;)
