We did get a backhanded complement from them on one of their websites (or maybe it's in the rules - I don't remember): "This is a game, not a complex flight simulator", which could only refer to M&M/Triplane. It looks like fun, if you like simple boardgames. I don't - not for airplanes anyway.

It was just the balloons I was mentioning, after seeing that yours was a cardboard cutout, although nicely drawn.
