No I'm not shaking my head because someone has been naughty (you know who you are). I'm talking about the option in the PC version where the pilots head (sight) is moved by hard maneuvers & cannon fire. I know that this is a console game & most people would not want it due to the difficulty it brings but I think it is one of the most imersive elements in the PC version. Is it available as an option in the full version?

Probably not gonna see it :(...there are many little things missing from BOP but at least it's a decent start considering it's for the consoles. More than likely this was something else forced to be removed by the publisher because the general public "doesn't understand it".

Its nice, i agree but the control layout is retarded enough as it is simply by being on a controller and having no custom layout (though i prefer it to joysticks, and like the layout).. I just think it would be hard to recenter your head with the right stick you are constantly using and there is no toggle view.
EDIT:
Wait sorry, forget what i said, your head does not throw off it just shakes (PC version), well in this i notist a lot of plane unstibility after shooting and over using your rudders, which i suppose makes it hard enough for a console first timer.

I haven't noticed it in the demo (yet?) but does your pilot get blinded/knocked out etc. like it does in the PC version?

My only disappointment so far is the fact that you can't do crash landings - I always used to love trying to limp home to base after getting shot up and having my pilot pass out every twenty seconds. I felt that it provided a somewhat visceral appreciation of the horrors of war...
