Can you PM me the information on this?

shilla22, to make a very long drawn out story short, large amounts of cash would have to change hands for any more Grumman aircraft in the IL2 series.

Just let it rest.

It's a dead horse and no sense beating it any more.

I think someone who has the time to write to them, asking politely, for an explanation of their current policy on older intellectual property, 70+ years old tech ...it may have changed over the years

You think a lawyer cares about a few "gamers" when $$$ is the motive for this?


Go ahead and try and see how far you get. And please post the form letter you get from N-G here would you?

My point was a simple e-mail, would reveal if Grumman is still protecting their older intellectual property. They may not care about the use of such material in a game. Anyone interested in sending a e-mail, would probably get a fast reply.
