What's with the developer trashing. The modders would have nothing to mod without the hard work of the developers. Ofcourse the IL-2 series wasn't perfect, neither will the SOW series. Even the mods are far less than perfect. Thats an impossible task given the complexity of whats trying to be accomplished on todays computers. SOW will become closer to perfection as the series grows and computers become more capable.
The IL-2 series is dead as a commercial product as its impossible to support IL-2 and develop SOW. It may have been possible if the developers crew was larger and we actually paid what the software is worth. Even then there would be no point in maintaining IL-2 as most of the community will move on. There will always be a few diehards, but Il-2 will die a slow death even in the mod community when SOW is released with a mod friendly componant.
Trashing the developer is one of the most clueless points of view I've read in the IL-2 forums.
