This is a real pity. It means that if people model an area nicely and new users come along they won't know about it since they may never even subscribe the the mailing lists let alone happen to be around then the announcement is made. This is why other flight simulators do so well - they include a lot "in the box" without the need to hunt all over the web for addons that you don't even know exist. How popular would the San Francisco scenery be if all it contained was the default generated airports and terrain? If we can do it for San Francisco then surely we can do it for other areas too? If not then why not? Paul ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc. Do you grep through log files for problems? Stop!
