As an avid X Plane user I could not resist adding my two cents: I find it strange that people who contribute tirelessly at trying to make X Plane better, being put under a constant barrage of comments about how they haven't 'raised the bar' enough from persons whom I never see any further contribution from nor any real constructive criticism. This team puts their tireless efforts into their work, some of it being: "ahead of the pack", "working in unchartered waters", "pushing the void", etc, etc.... There is a very thin line between constructive criticism and being down right rude and obnoxious and in particular you should be careful when you are going to comment about a person's livelihood on open forums. I would encourage you to rather present your case in a more professional manner (ie. an email to the designers, expressing your disappointment with some of your own design suggestions), rather then spraying it on the internet. Because Tom you may think that you're being funny, witty, above them, informative, smart, intellectual, whatever. You should really be beside them, assisting them, bettering them with positive reinforcement, doing your bit to help them. I hope you read between the lines of this post. Because if you don't, just uninstall SMP, uninstall X Plane, turn off your PC/MAC and go outside and do something positive then just smash someones hard work. For all you know you will be a better person anyway. @ Sky Max Pro Team, keep pushing the void, being ahead of the pack in X Plane. You guys are awesome at what you are attempting to achieve. Peace!
