What does IRIS stand for?

I'm working on a combo review of the Aerosoft and IRIS F-16s. What does IRIS stand for? I looked in several places on the website, to no avail.
 
Iris is a flowering plant ... with several varities

Its also a part of the eye ...
 
I'm go to see Avatar in a couple of hours. Just for that, I'm not going to tell you how it ends.

My first thread I read this morning and you got me laughing, thanks for giving me a good start to the day.

Hmmm....Iris, so many meanings, I am now curious to find out which meaning fits the bill. Got to be something to do with the radar guided missle.

Anyway, back to the topic - why not ask David? Drop by the website and PM him.

Probably something mundane - as in he named it after his maiden aunt or something...
 
If you are writing a review of an Iris product, would it not be best to ask the David what his company name stands for?

My biggest criticism of Avsim reviews (well really just about my only criticism), is when the reviewer makes presumptions rather than contacting the developer for a definitive answer.

I'm sure this won't be the case with this review of course.

Cough, cough. :engel016:
 
I can tell you what i think it stands for..
it stands for a small group of individuals who over the last few years have bonded together to do the very best they can to make aircraft that are enjoyable, accurate and affordable. People who look in places no one else looks, like under the seats, trying to find that one odd vertex that just wont behave. People like myself, who scour through fcc documents and MOD documents and reports to make certain that the numbers and details in the aircraft, are as accurate as we can possibly make them. but mostly, it stands for a group of individuals who love the hell out of flying and this community we are so proud to serve. Even when sometimes that community can be a little more than harsh.. it makes us want to do better, and we do..
It stands for a small group of individuals that at one time was hardly even a second thought as a team, and who have made some of the most affordable and enjoyable aircraft addons available today..
And we will keep making them as affordable, as enjoyable, and as accurate as time and money allows..
till hell freezes over...
