Of course for those people who find their way to flightgear on their own there is no reason to buy it unless they want a adsic.
However remember that if someone is spending money advertising to bring people to their site who otherwise wouldn't here about flightgear then they are expanding the userbase at their cost and deserve a way to male a living from their time and money spent. One good thing about the gnu licenses is they allow commercial enterprises to ell the software so that means the software can compete with commercial neterprises like those from the big companies. This does get the software out there.
