- please add airfield data to the maps (name, primary runway direction and elevation would be sufficient, at least for the larger, more permanent airfields).

- in radio calls, clearance should be asked for and given for a particular runway. Now, especially online, everybody's landing haphazardly wherever. I understand that adding this to the voice calls would require a lot of work, but to add it in text shouldn't be such a problem. An option to ask for the runway in use and basic weather info for the field would be good too.

Thanks for good ideas. Minimap path without icons is already possible. Those labels we have already considered. Maybe each waypoint on map could include bearing and distance to next WP. I personally would like to have some sort of map aid like in Silent Hunter 3 but simplified. Click & hold mouse button do draw a line and it includes distance and heading from line start to end.

If airfield has Lorenz blind landing system installed, there is a international ILS icon visible on map with the runway heading. Alt info could be added there easily.

Last idea probably gets too complicated compared to the benefits it offers. Online air-quake warriors would still takeoff and land using taxiways.
