It turns out that the patent has nothing to do with flight simulation but with remote license checking, but still. The Slashdot article has the line ""X-plane is a cross-platform flight simulator app, notably the only serious one that supports Mac OSX and Linux." In the comments the "serious" part refers to X-Plane being "FAA certified." Now, I know that software isn't FAA certified -- complete systems --are and that FlightGear has been used in commercial simulators too, but someone (Curt?) with the real details might want to chime in with a correction.
