I wonder if it would have been financially feasible to hire a few people specifically for IL2.
It's pretty clear that there is still a lot of interest in the game. After downloading the Slovakia and Besarabia maps I realized what potential this game still has. Most people now have machines that can run the game at high settings ( took me 3 computers over six years) and it's just a shame that we'll have to start all over when SOW comes out, as far as theaters and number of aircraft are concerned. All I can hope for is that Oleg will open the Il2 franchise and let others make paid expansion packs with new planes and maps. I think for the near future, SOW and IL2 should be able to exist next to each other untill SOW grows to the point where it won't make sense/cents to keep il2 around any longer.
