Bill, Dave, don't shoot me !! ;-/ I hardly meant to show disrespect of some kind to the FG team, when I said that heli looked like an "afterthought". Not at all. It's just that I happen to be interested in helis more than planes, and planes are clearly sorted zillions times better than helis. I was just pointing this out, not making any kind of judgment. I would be delighted if I could dig out a magic stick to improve the situation, but I can't do that ! :o( I have no IT skills whatsoever. It they guys behins the FDM didn't do it, who am I on earth to pretend I can do any better ? I don't even know what's an XML file. The cold fact is that I am completely unable to help in anyway other than testing models by flying them, giving my opinion on whatever aspect of the game/FDM, and give tons of moral support and encouragement. And also, obviously, I have many other things I enjoy, which already eat all my time. Learning day by day how to live with my Linux Penguin being one of the most time consuming one... Being an electronic enginner, I can probably fix my radio receiver or what have you, but if Flight Gear doesn't do what I need it to do...what can I do ? If my teh engine of my car explodes, what can I do ? I must pay for the garage to fix it. I can't even afford to spend years learning how to fix it, because I need the car to be back on the road ASAP. Sure I would love to help, but I am realistic... there are millions of FG users that are much more competent/able to help than me ! :-/ I hope you will allow me the right to be just a normal user ? ;o) Peace and love....
