Way to bring back an over one year old thread. Nevermind the fact that the developer realized he was doing wrong and did the right thing. -I didn't mean to bring back a sore subject, if I stirred the pot in a negative way, I apologize. I was not aware that the default 747 for X10 would be to the quality of some of the amazing aircraft being developed here. (since to date, the default heavy metal have been average) I'm really disappointed in your lack of realization that the 747 here is rather obsolete considering the rather nice one coming out as a default aircraft in X-Plane 10. Okay, so which part are you contributing to? - My contribution to the X-plane communities recently has been minimal, I must admit -- I absolutely support payware and own almost all of the payware aircraft available. With my busy schedule, $$$ is about all I can contribute right now. I want to see these projects succeed and if that means paying for aircraft, I am all for it. With the amount of time needed to develop these birds, it makes sense. BTW, what's up with the negative karma? What did I do wrong here? It's a discussion board, why can't I have an opinion? That's pretty immature to do that to me. Am in the wrong place here? Please tell me why you would do that to me.
