Exactly right. It is so hard to spot planes that I usually end up giving up a good position just to find a a target.

I don't have much patience with people saying it is realistic. After all, pilots might have gone on patrol several times in a row without engaging the enemy but this isn't what I go online for.

There needs to be a balance between sim and playability.
