I’ve done all I can for the sim and my usefulness to this product and the flight-sim genre has now expired and I must say goodbye. I can’t say much about why this has happened other than to say there are differences that cannot be overcome. We have all experienced this in our lives at some point. The Entropy Aero team will carry on with development. I wish them the best of luck. I also want to thank the investors who have taken a chance on the first original hardcore combat flight-sim to be developed in many years. I especially want to thank the entire Combat Pilot community for all the fantastic support you’ve given and the enthusiasm you’ve shown since the very beginning of this project. I have many friends here that I’ve known for quite a long time. Thank you for your steadfast friendship over the years including these challenging last few. Finally, I want to thank anyone who’s ever purchased a Rise of Flight, IL-2 Great Battles or Combat Pilot title I’ve produced. Your patronage has allowed me to have a career doing what I loved for many years and it’s greatly appreciated. I’ll always be a fan of this hobby, WWII history and military aviation. Best of luck to everyone. - Jason 1 2 1 5

Thats it then... https://combatpilot.com/thank-you-jason/ May as well post their reply here 🙂 ------ A farewell message. As some of you will already know, Jason Williams has left the Combat Pilot project. The Entropy.Aero team has a lot to thank Jason for. Without Jason’s vision, the Combat Pilot project would not not be where it is today and we are grateful to have had the opportunity to work with one of the greats in the flight sim industry. Jason has a tremendous track record and is known around the world for his great achievements, and we intend to honor this legacy by continuing on the path he chose for us. To be specific, the roadmap for the project remains exactly as-is. We are very grateful for the last 3 years working together, breaking new ground in the flightsim genre. The project will continue as Jason planned. Building on the foundations he proposed, we will continue developing Combat Pilot – Carrier Qualification to be released into early access later this year. Our resolve is stronger than ever. We were very happy with the enthusiastic reception of last month’s demo during the Steam “Next Fest”, which was a proof of concept in itself. It showed us we have every reason to be confident of delivering a next generation flight sim. We wish Jason all the best for his future endeavors. 1
Catch Posted April 4 Posted April 4 I told him to build on the RoF/FC legacy and do WW1. You know, proper like with an Se5a that flies right, a Channel map (including SE England and London), an Italy map, flying boats and a Bristol Boxkite. A surefire money spinner and just want the punters want. Nobody wants WWII anymore I said. But no, he wouldn't listen. 2
