Is the CFS3 World alive?

[IndioBlack]

I'm new to CFS3 and have been playing around with the Mission Builder to create B-17 missions that I can fly. I can't help but notice that, quite apart from the aircraft that I place into a mission, there seems to be lots of other allied and enemy aircraft flying around that are independently generated by the game engine.  
For instance, I tested one night mission over the channel, where the Sim sent up some German Night Fighters against me; and when I took a flight of B-17s to bomb Bremen, I bumped into another flight of B-17s in the same area. What was really cool was that I was flying the Avhistory Molly II, whilst the other flight was the Memphis Belle, which I had installed from Just Flight.
It seems that CFS3 is probably a lot more sophisticated than one might imagine, and certainly makes Mission Building a much simpler process: All you have to do is select a mission target and create a flight of aircraft to go there, and not only will CFS3 send up some bad guys to play with you, it'll send up some good guys too.
This is a major leap forward from CFS1 and CFS2, and I'm seriously impressed.

Yeah, but the random spawns can be a pain in the arse if you're trying to recreate historical events.
If you want to dissable random air spawns use this little proggy of mine

Thanks for confirming my findings. Now I know that I'm not completely insane.
I don't wish to recreate historical events - just recreate a flavour of the times. I like the surprises.
However, thanks for telling me about your programme, it may come in handy some time.
