Congrats! You've discovered the first 50% payware / 50% freeware download....now I guess you're stuck paying for the other half.....how'd you keep that flying anyway? ;)

Ummm...guys?
Yes, it looks quite ridiculous with one wing, but It's kind of unfair to bash Captain Sim for their demo being incomplete.
The point is to give you a taste and decide if you like it enough to buy it!
After all, if they gave you a full demo of the Herc, who would buy it? It's well known that Captain Sim is a payware developer. Many hours go into development of this sort of plane.
I don't own it (I have little interest in heavies of any sort), but for the quality that Captain Sim puts into their products (I do own their Yak-3), if you don't want to buy it, just don't buy it! Don't post a shot of the demo, then bash the developer!
Hokay...rant over....you can wake up now...

Jord, I honestly don't think anyone was bashing Captain Sim. I know I certainly wasn't. I was only making light of what I thought was a funny pic. To be honest I didn't even know it was a Captain Sim project. No disrespect intended!

No matter what you say about bashing captain sim, it still looks ridiculous flying with only one wing

Good Grief Jordonj,
WE ARE JOKING!
Of course we understand why it only has one wing, it's so that we can see the basic fussalage, wing structure, engines and props, etc. in real time on out own PC's. After all, if parked on the ground and viewed from the port side it would look complete. No one is 'bashing' Capt Sim, in fact I have the highest respect for their work. I'm sure that they would find this post amusing and be gratefull for the extra attention it has brought to their product.
Were you having a bad day or do you really have no sense of humour?

Jordon, I wasn't bashing them either. I was just surprised to find it had no starboard wing.
