Hi Robert and all,
This idea has been floating around my head for a while, ever since I
got into Flight Simulation but am limited by the abilities of IYP, Ex.
unsupported aircraft I'd love IYP to support that would probably take
for ever to implement.
For example, Aerosoft's airbus's, aircraft from iFly, etc.
all of these aircraft feature Flight Management Computers (FMCs) which
include Flight Planning, fuel, even the ability to autoland and choose
how you want to fly the plan.
There are other things that IYP should support too. A perfect example
would be the new Flight Sim World, available for early access on
Steam. I wonder if early access means free, i'd be curious to check
out the interface.
So basically, what I'm saying is, should Robert open IYP up? Should he
give the code away, make it free software, and have the flight simming
community make improvements to it, add more aircraft, etc? The next
question to ask is, what to do with the online services?
Of course the tradeoff here is that if he opens it, someone may just
completely remove blind pilot mode or something.
I'm curious, what does everyone think about the idea? IYP could
continue development, but as I said I hope whoever takes it over would
have the decency to continue developing blind pilot mode.
