You don't have to be over sixty Brando! I remember it well. We didn't go 'smokeless' until the 70's. Many buildings still haven't been cleaned up.

I'm not sure if I'd want to see that kind of grime in a flight sim though, even if it did add 'realism'.
Having said that, the air pollution over cities would be a good addition.
Geoff Wellum called it 'Horrible, dirty yellow, curry-coloured smoggy smoke'.

Can't say I fancy the sound of what they passed off as curry back then though.

Funny, I just read that line in his book last night. Thoroughly enjoying it in preparation for SoW!!
