It's great to see this attention to detail, but I think there are other areas that need more work ATM.

Would you say the same about the flight jackets? After all, most people couldn't care less about how correct they are, as long they look reasonably vintage. It's not that you get to see them too often anyway while flying past opponents at 600MPH...
Texture quality aside (AF should still make a major difference even without any further updates), I find the terrain mesh quality amazing, both down low and far away. I don't know any sim which renders such far-away details like the cliffs on the lower edge of image #5 with such quality.
