Yes, the thought has occured to me. I will likely never bother with it though. All of the places that I can get to while staying in EV mode I can get to as is. Some of them push me to the limie, but the frequency with which I go to those places isn't that often. So, a mod simply wouldn't be worth my time and effort. I think I'd be better off doing some more aeromods or something.

I'm not sure what you are talking about.
