Best prop sim since the Il2 series.
The best thing I can say about it is that it's the only sim that has ever taken me away from the Il2 series in 7 years (and it's not like I don't have other's) for any period of time.
I'm continually finding new things every day, and like Il2, this has a "feel of flight" that's out of this world.
I used to wonder why TX-Ecodragon was so passionate about clickable cockpits, and now I know. It's simple, you get to interact with the cockpit in a manner that is Ergonomically more "pilot like" and natural. Many switches which I'd normally map to a controller or keyboard, I can just naturally move around the cockpit to use in the manner that the cockpit was designed for. The clickable cockpit has actually allowed me to learn the cockpit much faster than in Il2.
I'm running BS on a 3 year old laptop, and doing ok. You don't need 70 fps for this sim, as combat is occurring at long range (or your dead).
Two things that my experience with BS has made me hope for in SOW:
1) More advanced flight model than what we've been using since 4.04 - while the current Il2 FM is good - it could be more complex and complete
2) Clickable cockpits
