Conversely, someone developing a new plane with a huge number of polys. That person connects to flightgear MP server at SFO with those who can see the plane seeing their frame rate drop due the polycount. Also think about the dial-up modem. A player has developed a custom plane connect to the MP server, several players around the same airport starts a transfer of the new plane. You still have to solve the problem of two different planes that have been customised by different players from over writing other variants of the same plane. I think we should stick with a centralised hangar of selectable planes which can be downloaded as required.
