Three Grumpy Simmers - EP16 - Of Kickstarters and Developers
Your favourite cantankerous trio of simmers are back and at least one is grumpy as hell.
In the wake of the announcement by Military Visualizations of their intention to use Kickstarter to fund the port of their upcoming ATR72 to X-Plane 11 from ESP.
Together we look over the motivations and the impact that this new development could have on the community as well as delving in detail to the project itself.

Drew "Bel Geode" Bolton has been a flight simulation enthusiast since 1986, and has been an active member of the community since 2005. A former virtual airline CEO, Bel has embraced many aspects of flight simulation, and understands how to connect with the community at large, through his YouTube
channel, and various collaborations with fellow simmers. Bel Geode can be found often in FSX in his F-14 Tomcat "Valkyrie", in X-Plane in one of his many helicopters, or in DCS World in anything he can get his hands on, to make targets go "Boomflowah"!
