[philip.ed]

I think it could be useful, but I don't like the idea of seeing planes below you.
One feature I like in BoB2 is that the player can press a button (F5 off the top of my head) which draws a triangle on the screen and you can put this over any A/C and padlock it. For (non)TIR users, it can be extremely useful. The triangle disappears unless you have icons on, so doesn't detract from the realism.
Also, in BoB2, if a plane goes under your wing or your plane when padlocked you never lose sight of it. Whether this is real is debateable, but I have always preferred this feature.
