I have found a perfect compromise to the tag thing. This works great for singleplayer. I'm 40 years old and have a really hard time spotting aircraft, but I don't want that crap all over my screen.
I used the advice here and created a tag that just shows a small blue dot over enemy aircraft and nothing over your own. The best thing about it is it virtually disappears at close range.
Use the code above but set every setting but DOT to .01 on the first line (friendlys will have no tag info).
On the FOE line use .01 for everything except ID and COLOR (use however far in KM you want to see the little blue period). In SP enemy planes have no ID so it just uses a period in its place.
It works perfect for me without all the crap on the screen!! (see attachment). PS You can also make the little dot black by setting COLOR to .01
Here is the actual code for the icon.rcu file.
mp_dotrange TYPE .01 ID .01 RANGE .01 COLOR .01 DOT 25
mp_dotrange FOE TYPE .01 ID 15 RANGE .01 COLOR 15 DOT 50
timeout 60000 file icon.rcu
