Iris easter eggs!

Free is sometimes really good. Here is a pic I took of the flight test CRJ-1000 if anyone is interested.

As a honest developer we have to ensure we do not abuse or mishandle other people or companies' intellectual property. With this moral belief that many of us professionals must adhere to, I am not trying to be cynical or discourage Iris's good intentions. I am only saying this to protect SOH, so they do not get into trouble for condoning piracy. I must mention that the "Easter Egg" they have given, violates Microsoft's rights as the owner of the Bombardier_CRJ_700_Interior.MDL in the FSX installation which they added to their "Easter Egg" files they have given you.
Stovall,
I can assure it has nothing to do with Iris, I was just looking out for the forum. It had came to my attention from a number of people that the MDLs they placed in that package belong to Microsoft. Please forgive me for letting you know.
I do not understand why you responded so harshly when I have not attacked or said anything bad about Iris.

Installing it now, wondering how much the Sentinel differs from the UK Mil release. The Navy Skin looks great, if it released would you have problems with me using it as a what if for VP-65? And as much as it hurts me to admit, being a Navy Lifer, the Coasties do need some love with that bird too, it'd look great flying out of San Diego or Sacramento or any other place the tend to lurk about.
Tim by mentioning the condoning of Piracy seems to me you are inferring that IRIS would be a guilty of piracy. If you think this is true please take it up with IRIS directly and not on our forum. I can assure you the administrators here will be checking if piracy is truly involved.
Stovall,
I think you should refrain first from your post that I have a problem with Iris. I have not said anything here to the fact. Second, I am glad I got your attention about the severity of the situation concerning piracy when they packaged a Microsoft file you purchase with Flight Simulator X in their free product. It's simple and I am sure the admins will see hey Tim was right.
Next I would appreciate it if you gave me the respect I deserve especially when I have not disrespected you.
It's only common courtesy.
Thank you Roger,
I now know, and next time I will find an admin and send a PM. I apologize, I was just trying to bring it to SOH attention.

I love the idea of a USCG San Diego Sentinel
The way to figure the USCG with this bird is to follow our HU25 Falcon fleet, they love KSAN, KPIE, KOPF and KNGP. We have around 6 HU25's at KNGP Corpus Christi CGAS atm. We Smell hurricane and interdiction season coming me thinks.

Wish I could try out the Sentinel, it looks like a very nice model indeed... I somehow managed to delete my default CRJ 700 panel folder. Dooohhhhh
All the interior model bedlam could have been avoided if the model.cfg [Iris CRJ 200] reads:
[models]
normal=CRJ200_FSX
interior=..\..\Bombardier_CRJ_700\model\Bombardier_CRJ_700_Interior
Now the default CRJ 700 interior is aliased and there's no need to include the interior model file in the download.

Good point Dave. Perhaps IRIS could consider this as an alternative.
