But who can play a game for 30 years straight?

Ah, I was asking about Kilometers.

Just wondering why all the data is in kilometers? As far as I can tell they are not used in real world aviation.

There are no spies, only competition. And if the Airline Mogul has caught up to us, there's nobody to blame but myself. I don't blame their work in the least. There's no law broken, or even a moral code. It's obvious StephenM isn't trying to steal anything, to sabatoge the game, or anything else that's outside the mindset of cooperation. He's an active member of the forums who's made quite a few suggestions of how to improve the game. I'm glad he's here.

I am quite happy to see that opinion, as it is not my intention to copy AE. I still quite enjoy playing the game, and hope to continue to do so. And I do plan to moving my own project in a different direction on a number of areas so there should in time, be greater differentiation between the two.

and Finally, #3.....This one might be a touchy one...but who is this Mystery Spy who miller claims is stealing his ideas??.........I only know of one other Airline Sim and thast the efZed guys down in Australia.........Is there another FREE Airline Sim out there???........if so who are they?.......

Back in 2005 there were 3 games that had the same style and about 2-3 in development the time, of which 1 survived. (AE). There are about 5 games including AE out there along the same theme excluding the Aussie one.
