I know.
I am not a real life pilot but i am parachutist so i know what you mean but you forgot one thing: Cars on a road are not provided with a camo.

Camos are not always perfect, they are (sometimes) useless at present day, they were surely worst in WWII. It always depends from thousands of factors like ambient light, clouds, angle of view etc. but yes, in some situations you can be able to see something that, let's say, the guy 50 meters western than you may not see.

Looking something skyward from the ground is not that difficult due to high contrast with the skylight

I can agree with you on this.
My house is at about 2.5km straight line from LIRE (Pratica di Mare Mil) and i am having the same feel as you stated in the quote above.

Then we have the cockpit blinking light, the painting that was glossy, the cloud effect of multiple contacts etc etc.. that we don't have on the simulator

I am not complayning what you say (write) being irrational, if i let intend this i am sorry.
I am just trying to keep a discussion where ideas from different people are facing each other.
Nothing more, nothing less.

As stated above at previous quotes, i don't agree with you on some points, but i do on others.
The truth is in the middle (probably).

Who knows, maybe this thread will be such an inspiring place for devs to make a working solution for our ghost-contacts over the channel.
