I'll just jump in here and say it won't hurt to upload it if you don't mind the extra bit of work involved.
Somewhere a Carenado owner will think it's cool and get some pleasure from it.
If this gives you a kick, go for it. But I reckon one should never feel obliged.
All freeware starts with doing something for your own satisfaction, otherwise Why Bother?
The flightsim world revolves around a lot of folk sharing their personal pleasures.
This is a self-sustaining roundabout, and very few thankyou's are made, or even thought necessary.
Problem is when freeware goes a little beyond what you would've done for yourself - no-one knows this, and so of course they don't acknowledge it.
This is not the community's fault, it's just in your head.
'Course the next major issue is when you come up with a great new idea, and somebody steals it and improves it!
It's called progress.
Ooh I am going on a bit here, but I speak as one who's gone the extra mile and felt a tad let down at the end of the process.
I've stayed in the flightsim community becasue I reckon it's amazing to see the dynamics of such a vast and varied group, revolving around a particularly geeky interest.
And you come across the nicest people...
