Hello

There are lots of requests for new planes.......... announcements of new planes and so on

Well this is only an observation............ 'mods' or 'add-ons' certainly seems to have kept this

sim going! And the more modders that get involved the more interest there seems to be in

this particular sim. So if more modders is good......... would many more modders be better?

But how do you get them? It seems that the 'construction' of a new plane is complex, at least

above most peoples level of ability............ certainly mine. So thanks to all who do this fine

work.

Anyone familiar with 'Xplane'? It has a feature called Plane Maker. Yep thats what we need for

IL2. Anyone who came up with a version of this for IL2 could really write their own ticket. In general,

I think in the future.......... really great sims will include the ability to mod or add-on to the original game.

Just my opinion. But I tell you this.........I'd pay 40, 50 bucks for a Plane Maker for IL2.

I'm not pushing Xplane........... its made for a totally different purpose and so doesn't compete with IL2.

So......... maybe taking a page out of someone elses 'book' would be a good thing?
