It's always nice to be able to pay the bills. It's also nice to have a large, willing team of testers across a variety of hardware setups and operating systems as you move towards your GMC.

They only have one seed on a torrent. Once I get it, I'll stay up as long as possible. I'll do the same, sadly my 30 minute download went to 6 hours because the other seeder dropped off.

Thats great news,but, I wonder why they've done that? Bigger funds for developement? To test various hardware for any potential issues not covered by the beta team's equipment.

Would be interested to know if Beta has full TrackIR and HOTAS functionality and a manual before deciding to pre-purchase, many thanks.
