You could also maybe start the mission, take off and skip to the point where you first enounter enemy contact. Not much use in flying to Berlin and back in a combat box, following the guy ahead of you. Focus on the action parts. Forget wich sim had that skip forward function. Maybe Microsoff Combatsim 2? The people that want to spend the time can still do it at normal speed. Say a photo recon flight requiring navigation skill, a patfhfinder mission or night interdiction in a Hurricane II. Do it on a moonlit night and use realistic dead recogning navigation using landmarks, compass and stopwatch to get to your target. Just finding the target will give you a newfound respect for what these guys did 70 years ago.
I would like to see a May1940 Blitzkrieg, Western Europe map with a corresponding planeset. There would be a lot of ground attack and defence missions. With this maps detail level it should be very realistc. Same map could be used or adapted for 1941-45 scenario's. Lots of low level atack potential.
