With ext views allowed, anyone with normal hand-eye coordination can easily achieve perfect SA. The game becomes a silly climbrace. Its anything but what real air war was.

EDIT: and no I dont use TrackIR.

again, closed pit snobbishness is breathtaking sometimes.

perfect SA means that it then becomes being able to fly ACM perfectly, to outfly your opponent with what you are able to do, rather than creep up and knife someone in the back without them seeing you. two different kettles of fish.

the real air war was hardly something to find enjoyment in. imnsho.

If they want uber realism, lock into cockpit.
If they want Hollywood, unlock.

for uber realism you'd better also strap a large incendiary device under your chair as well.
