..Yup  8)

But, do not forget the community; there are probably hundreds of players who have helped gathering the data, testing the game and so on.
Also, Sami has used some contractors for different things, like the visuals.

I'm the one responsible of the site, and answering emails and such. There are 3 other persons involved in technical side of server management (3 servers, that host various aviation related projects ...), and 1 person assising in the actual company management (that does also other things than just AWS).

I'm not full-time employed on this (although when judging the time used could possibly be  :P ) but got my real job elsewhere in aviation sector, and also doing other projects too. So cannot code & plan 24/7 unfortunately. ;)

A group of long time AWS users is forms a small beta test team, but that's very very occasional stuff; only testing briefly before a new major version (like 1.2) comes out. And like mentioned I've used outsourcing for non-programming related tasks too, and actually just looking a freelancer to hire for such task.

Interesting page! I read a few of it and I'll be sure to read all soon.

Thanks for the information, it's nice to know more about the work behind the scenes.

Never seen that page before.

Is it wrong I prefer the 2nd header, with the 747 (?) and A3-something or other (?). Just me.

B767-300, and yeah I like the original header as well. ;) The current one looks more professional though, so I'll stick with this one I guess. :P
