sorry.. I am definately not good as explaining things......
There is a TV show in the UK called the "Dragons Den" - its a good watch..
One thing I do is look at any project first positively outcome outlook and
then the deperately negatively and forecast how everything could go tits
up.. This is from expereience as a music producer, oily rag and web dev.
When I do this with client, the "spec" changes, although it can and does
generally does get emotional. Indeed I get rejected "clients" coming back
later saying so... you were so negative.. but... and little little issue,
neglected can get in the way in a very big way if not assumed.. also
"Assumption is the the mother of all mistakes" (please quote me)
So I'll explain the issues I have, and want to raise these so we can either
ignore, agree or resolve from for the future of flightgear..

Virtual MD of XYZ-airlines bored meeting
1) who are these people selling and giving out our software and making money
off our back
2) We did an agreement with lmn-software and this is not party of that
agreement, they are exclusive ?
3) Have they ever asked us for permission to use it ???
4) Can we stop them using our logo.. because its an olde one. at least they
should have new one..
5) "a take down notice I think is in order sir" said a legal head
6) Will this be a PR disaster ??

ummmm
I think the issues for me is that we are in danger of being sued, all we
would need is some airline to raise a charge in court about usage, and we'd
be stuffed. m$ would be a good candiate for this as we all know... a big
bully ballmer in a small livery room with a chair and aircon off, flying
with the FlightSimPro.
So my questions are honest to establishing
* whether we have permission to use
* there are conflicts between GPL and "fairuse" as a LOGO is owned by "corp"
and GPL is everybody
* the trading standards in the UK is a
The "wonderful" world preferred would be a letter to Airlines with simple
question and some answers

Dear Boss,
Can we use your livery and logos for aircraft.
Fg is a free flight simulator etc.......cd inc and copy no bootleg...
If you could please reply with a CD containing the latest livery and logo so
we can make it available for our aircraft and the virtual pilots who want to
fly in your virtual plane, we would be very happy
Kinds Regards
Me
A Virtual pilot..
