Most just want to hop in and start shooting.

So on the larger maps that results in about a 20-30 km square area that is used while the map makers spent all this time on the other areas that will never gut used.

You are right.

But, as I told in my first post, that map is focused to heavy bombers missions to be played off-line, not dogfights.

Of course, it also may be played on-line... but I agreed with you it is too big for that purpose.

However, there are many players who never play on-line and they find other ways to enjoy this sim: just like me.
