For whatever it's worth, my reading of their site suggested that they are
basing their commercial product off some other software/simulation engine
and are looking for content. If they are proceeding with permission of the
content authors and in compliance with licensing then I wish them all the
best. And I think it's worth noting that these guys are generally creating
content and scenarios; they are building stuff; adding to what's already
there and rolling in the experience of a real combat pilot. This is a ton
of time and effort (they aren't simply copying someone else's work and
trying to spam the internet with it like some of our less favorite friends
are known to do.)
