June 29, 200916 yr I could not belive my eyes when I read this post on simflight.com and this on the site itself.A business begging for donations due to "deteriorating world-wide economic conditions" and "legal expenses for the custody action " is this a joke? I know times are tough, my work is no different but if we begged our customers for a donation they would most likely laugh and never deal with us again.Unreal!!!!

If he is going to go out of business, might as well knock on all doors.

If he has fallen on hard times, I have no problem with him saying so and providing him with some cash on top of the lifetime subscription I have with him. Justin is a standup guy and has given a great deal to this community. Think of it as giving forward - and maybe as giving some back. DJ
June 29, 200916 yr Looks to me like he put his family before his pride, nothing wrong with that in my opinion.Joe The best gift you can give your children is your time.
June 29, 200916 yr I'd hate having to ask for something like that, even from a close-knit community like this. I imagine he feels the same. I kicked in and I hope others find it in themselves to as well... Rick

In bad times sometimes you have to be bold and I have to give credit to Justin for trying. Some future employer may also well see he has the guts to think outside the box, even at the risk of looking vulnerable.-John

June 30, 200916 yr Hello,I suppose this develloper is a US citizenWell bailout work (or supposed work) for the banks and cars industry (with the taxpayer money) :) .. so why not for him ?Regards.Gus.What difference does his citizenship make? He's a human being who has contributed a great deal to Flight Simulation as we know and enjoy it. He needs some help at the moment if he is to continue any FS work. You can give it or not - your choice.DJ
