As someone who benefits from the modding community's labor without contributing myself, first let me say thanks to all. You brought new life to what was already the best flight sim on the planet.
I would like to kindly make one request to bolster the tremendous contributions of those who build new planes. When new planes are released for download, I would like to see some basic statistics included in the first post. For instance, the same data you would find in the "View Objects" section of the game or the type of numbers found in Hardball's Aircraft Viewer.
I know this would give me a better idea of exactly what I have downloaded. I constantly rely on Hardball's Aircraft Viewer to compare the different planes available and decide which one to fly depending on the situation and opponent. A simple addition to the first post of each new plane thread could serve as valuable up-to-date reference material not found elsewhere.
By the way, here is the type of info included in Hardball's Aircraft Viewer that I would like to see added to the first post for new plane downloads.
Thoughts on standardized reference info for new planes?
Thanks for your consideration!
