If Kesmai had detected it, the players would have been banned for
life from the game. There is checking for flight performance that
falls out of range of "normal" but, as you say, they can't catch
everything. My guess is that within the next year or so the plane
data base will be more file-driven and run-time verified from the
host.

Geee ... is the implication here that the mighty WartHawgs had to
resort to code hacking? I will indeed have to give Fencer all manner
of hell about this.
