I heard a couple of homilies once:
"Just about the time I got that damn mule weaned off hay, he up and died on me.."
and
"You pay more money and you get a better seat.."
I design, code and support software for a living. The overhead of a twenty-four hour a day, seven day a week operation of this type will be a lot more than most of you imagine. It will take a steady revenue stream to support that, let alone recoup the development costs!
These guys (Hitech, Pyro, etal) are undoubtedly good wonderful dudes, but let's face it! I doubt that they are entirely in this for the love and adoration of WWII flight sim enthusiasts! I'll wager they want to make some MONEY some day!
So, if you guys are like me and you don't feel complete unless you've logged 20 or 30 hours in the virtual cockpit every week then you'd better get ready to pay the piper!
I, for one, am more than willing to do it.
P.S. Sorry about the mixed metaphors...
