Yep.  Not to underestimate the coolness of the simulated B747, P-51D,
F-15/6/8, C-172, etc., but I believe it is important to underscore the
worldwide developer/user participation by visibly featuring international
aircraft.  I was glad to see an A-320 (sorry AKP! ;-), among others.  I'd
like to see a Macchi MC.205, personally (fine Italian WWII fighter).
Perhaps with the introduction of David Culp's Aero-Matic we might come up
with some quick and dirty models.
