Since I set up this site in January of 2009, 1400 users have registered, 1000 of which used the system semi-regularly, and since December, 2011, over 130 likes on Facebook. That is much larger than I ever anticipated, and I’m happy to know that the system is used 24/7.
I am finishing my schooling this coming season (Fall 2014). Part of the final project is the creation of a business plan. I would be interested in seeing if NetFlight’s feature set could become a viable small business, enough that it pays for its own expenses (which are extremely minimal).
Accordingly, I have added a donation button. The rate and amount of donations received will help me gauge the interest in finishing copilot, brushing up documentation, and adding other features. And they’ll serve as a thank you from those of who who have found NetFlight a fun and/or valuable resource in your flight sim experience.
