Please devs, never mind the SDK or fixes to tracks, lets get cannon holes in a body? Please, lets focus on aerial combat first, then add fluff later.

Priorities first. Also, as has been mentioned in this thread, contact with enemy bombers & fighters was usually brief and a fighter pilot didn't make a habit of hanging about and looking into cockpits. Yes, we've all read accounts to the contrary and they stick in the mind because of the sensationalistic aspect, but these were exceptional occurrences and not the rule. I never served combat when in the RCA (artillery) back in 1969, but like many here have been first on scene at a road accident which, for me at least, was gut-wrenching and sickening. (Hats off to all police/fire/paras who do a job I could not). Admittedly escapist, but I just prefer the challenge of machine vs machine in a PC flight sim - don't need the blood 'n guts, personally.

If others want that for immersion, it's of no concern to me. I'd prefer it as a clickable option, though. As cheesehawk indicates, there's more pressing issues to resolve.
