Question regarding aircraft recognition in Sim

[ontheborderland]

The other day I was in a lobby with 15 other players waiting to play what was undoubtedly going to be an epic match of Strike on Sim. There was a good mix of fighters and bombers.

Unfortunately I got kicked, probably because my connection wasn't good enough (I'm in Australia ).

After I got over missing out on the fun, it occurred to me that the teams had mixed axis / allied aircraft, and since on Sim you can't target enemies specifically, wouldn't this lead to a very confusing match?!

I find it difficult to recognise aircraft at the best of times, but recognising a 109 when you're flying a Spit and still having no idea if it's one of your 109's or the enemies seems a little too random to me.

Have many of you come across this and how do you deal with it?
