Getting prop wash effects right, so that they match map, weather conditions and airfield type would be doable but more time consuming, since it would need to call data from map.ini and mission.properties files.
The option to simply switch on or off dust would be better than “always on” as it is now. More option would be even better, of course. In my opinion, the worst problem in visual rendering is not the prop wash effect, but the turning prop effect itself. As it is, it’s largely, LARGELY, LARGELY overdone.

Looking out of the cockpit, any propeller is simply invisible, unless under particular lighting condition, when it can become faintly and momentarily visible. I flew hundreds of hours with a real prop in front of my eyes, and I can remember to have saw it becoming visible perhaps three of four times, and always for a short time.
