(Assuming you mean the appearance, not the AI:)
If this was true, why would they make them that ugly at first? Licensing reasons? (my guess) This would prevent them of changing anything, too.
Time? I don't think modelling some ugly pointy nose is quicker than modelling a round one.

Am I right in saying that the only plane models we will see is one twin engine airliner, one four engine airliner and two civil jets plus default GA? The four jet engined planes dressed in appropriate liveries?

According to the description on Aerosoft  just the default Jet AI models.

Simple Traffic applies liveries to the native MSFS twin and four-engine jet, and regional-jet default AI models, which are optimized to minimize the impact on FPS.

 

Just purchased Simple Traffic from Aerosoft. Will give it a try tonight. It seems to be the perfect product for people like me. I want sth a simple install-and-forget. And I don't care at all the nuances of airport traffic, just want airports in MSFS to be reasonably busy and live. 

I like it, it's simple, no need to run a program in the background, normal load times and no fps hit whatsoever, it is just as default but with proper liveries.

Do you use it with Offline AI or Live Traffic?

Live traffic, but I set ground density to 30 to get GA at smaller airports, but the sim will then place some unrealistic liveries at the airports, but that's a price I'm willing to pay to get GA at smaller airports.

I'll probably give it a try.  Glad to hear you like it.

What do you mean by "normal loading times"? You mean the loading time is the same as before installing the program? I ask because Mathijs said the loading time would be at least 15% longer on a good rig. More on an old one.

Yes, I noticed no difference at all.

Hmm, that's good. Maybe I buy it then, was afraid of the long loading times.

Hi Guys 

I'm giving Simple Traffic a try also. I'm using it with Live Traffic and so far the liveries of the planes arriving don't match the description. While I've seen numerous various SWA arrivals I've yet to see a SWA livery. Is anybody getting good livery matching and if so what might I be doing wrong. Thanks!

Seems to work fine for me, I fly from ESSA (Sweden) and all most arrival aircraft is SAS, Finnair and Norwegian and some Air France and Lufthansa, seems pretty realistic at that airport.

Piece of cake when they decide to deal with it, which they will I'm sure.

Is there a list of airlines? I don’t see one on the product page.

It can be found in the FAQ on the forum, along with a list of airports that are supported.
