DCS/ED/Fighter Collection

[dooom]

I am curious how this delegation of authority works - who is parent company/ publisher/developer...

 

what is ED relationship to the fighter collection out of Duxford?

 

I am a little confused.

 

Why is the Duxford / fighter collection chief's head logo on the ED/DCS sites?

I think they are the publishers, but also help out with development. From my understanding though, ED retains all rights to their products.

Did you look at the FAQ?

Maybe not all answers but a good start perhaps.

I thought TFC owned ED as well as acting as the western publishers, no?

Actually, TFC owns ED with a 100% stake, and ED owns TFC with a 100% stake. ;)

 

Well, not really, but it would be funny. :D

The Fighter Collection and Eagle Dynamics have been partners for many years, I remember the Fighter Collection's American Indian logo being on the Original SU27 Flanker game way back in '96 (Published under SSI)

This is actually the first Flight Sim I ever played!!!

I remember that one fondly. The demo allowed you to control the aircraft even after ejecting. Perfect practice if you have an RC Flanker. :P

This wonderful piece of software was my very first computer game/simulation I ever put on my brand new computer...back in 1995. I still have the original software and manual.

It was the second flight sim installed on this awesome new invention called the "Pentium". I had a 75MHz version with a whopping 8MB of RAM. The first was Chuck Yeager's Air Combat - which came with the SB16. :D
