Dear Mr. BARANGER
1.) You don't have to adress me but the FGFS project main developers and
members!
2.) Unfortunately you just tried to correct some very few files- two of all
with success, one seems problematic to me......
Instead of adding several new aircraft in this time I hoped you are fixing all
the mentioned aircraft.
You didn't.
But well- it isn't my project, and it is not me who has to the responsibility
for licence violations by you in this Flight Simulator Project.

From the page you downloaded the Midi-file, the only hint on the Terms of Use I
found:
Quote from: http://www.blueman.name/Telechargement.php
"Aaaaahhh, les téléchargements... On aime ça... Récupérer des fichiers, des
applications, etc., nous apporte de la joie n'est-ce pas ? Et si c'est gratuit,
en plus, alors là, c'est l'apothéose... Et bien, soyez heureux : tout ce qui
est ici est gratuit ou Freeware..."
Translation for those who doesn't understand the french language:
" Aaaaahhh, those downloads... We love it... Rebuild the files, applications,
etc., this will bring us joy, won't it? And when it is all free of charge, and
more, then this is the top of it all. And, be happy: everything here is free of
charge or Freeware..."
Freeware isn't compatible with GNU GPL, and free of charge does not mean
automatically that it compliance to GNU GPL.
Very difficult to say here- I would have asked the author of this files anyway
to be on the safe side. You know that GNU GPL allows to sell your work and
everything included? Maybe the author doesn't like that?
Anyway: As you are a clever man, more clever than anyone of us, why you didn't
remember your own words?
On Wikimedia is a soundfile of the Ride of the Valkyries under Public Domain as
it is older than 75 years- Why don't use it?
And where does the instrument textures of the Etrich Taube come from?
Looks like another photographic texture with unknown source.
The quality isn't good, numbers etc. are blurry and hardly to read.
>For my part I continue to look for my errors in my few aircrafts :)
How about fixing the mentioned aircraft I listed up, before you add some more?
And how about making sure that you you have GNU GPL-compatible files before you
distribute it?
Licence Violations aren't any errors!
Asking for permission isn't a shame- but a great possibility to advertise this
Flight Simulator and your own work!
But it is a shame creating a false accusation against some younger people for
alleged disrespecting of a licence, but
really disrespecting different licences yourself!
