Oh, noooo, i don't worry, I am glad about it, since my choice of way of life is to have pleasure with the real life. When i started on computer ( most of the guys, here, where not born :) ) my target was to leave as soon as possible that ugly technical environment. I got it, :) being mainly a representative user talking with developper. To me, modeling Aircraft is not development , only Drawing ( which is easy with these modern tools) and, only using an existing FDM program , according to the know how about aerodynamic and aircraft behaviour. > > m. > > So, everything i can say, here, is coming from a user mind not a developer mind.
