Perhaps but given that they don't appear to be hurting in other areas I'm of the opinion that it's probably more of an internal political issue. They're developing and selling new planes, helicopters and cars but haven't touched the sim since hangar pack 1. While in the meantime the competition has released, I believe, three major revisions. To me that sounds a lot like whoever it was at the executive level that was backing the product either left or he or the product fell from the graces of the majority. This is all conjecture of course but, it makes better sense to me than the cost being the real issue.
