I agree 6DOF would be a problem for IL2. You would look behind you, lean past the headrest of your chair, and that's where your plane would end. You would see a floating pair of elevons and half a vertical stabilizer and that's it.

You would lean a little closer to the canopy to look down to the ground below you, and you would find your wing roots are missing! You'd rise up a little to see past that 190 bar and the whole front of the plane would be missing apart from a floating prop.

Immersion killer. The amount of work required to make 6DOF properly for IL2 is not just about "switching it on" in the code. You'd need to remodel the cockpits and more. As a result the game would demand more from the hardware and people would be complaining.

a lean forward function would be nice though and would work as well.
