Default Real-Time Missions?

Hello all,

Wondering if anyone has any info if BoP will allow you to fly missions in real-time? I hope so...

The only other Combat Flight Sim I’ve played was “Secret Weapons of the Luftwaffe” back in the early/mid 1990s. The game allowed you to fly real-time missions that could take hours to complete, just as they were in WW2. There was also a very nice feature that allowed you to speed-up time when needed. Maybe this is already a standard feature on the IL-2 PC games, but to fly a complete real-time mission was really fun & realistic. Will BoP have this?

I do not like how most of the current console flying games start your mission with you already flying and end without landing!! Not very realistic!! I remember some of my best experiences on “Secret Weapons” was trying to nurse a badly damaged fighter or bomber to my home-base and worrying that I would be jumped by enemy planes. I always liked how you had to complete the WHOLE mission (including landing back home) to be successful.

Thanks for any info....
