I've decided to 'go public' on PPRuNE just to say thankyou to those who are defending my copyright on this thread and the other RANT thread that is now locked. I understand the moans about the cost of RANT; however, the pilot training market is relatively small compared with the games market and so the demand for the program is limited. A reduction in price might sell a few more copies but, given the mark-up already charged by retailers, we'd not see much more dosh. Even at £89.90 per copy my business partner and I will never be able to give up the day-jobs! RANT profits keep us in new computer toys and not much else - we both do it because it's more interesting than stamp collecting and costs less than golf.
