Yes, they should have been included in the first place.

I don't get the whole math and flying crap to be honest. In Simulators I never used math to fly, mostly because I'm terrible at it... but I also never needed to.

You're right! You never need math in flying, you especially don't need math to calculate fuel burn, never once needed it to calculate distance vs airspeed, and you absolutely never, never, never need math to calculate weight and balance so that you can figure out ground roll on takeoff/landing and obstacle clearance. What really happens, and they won't tell you this until you pass your VFR checkride, is that you actually are assigned a magical fairy who flies along with you and rests on the wing, and her job is to remind you of everything. If she fails, she goes to fairy prison. I know that's an advanced technique, but hey, this information is for free. But, I don't know everything, I'm not Jesus.

Have they given us any reason why they didn't include German cockpits? It seems kinda silly to have such a great game and then leave out cockpits for planes that are very obviously part of multi. I really hope that they stick with authenticity instead of going weinerschnitzel on a P-47 cockpit just to appease us. It's a little disconcerting that they put a P-47D cockpit in the P-51D and I am hoping that it's only for the sake of the demo. I am and will remain in awe of the realism presented in this game otherwise. Just a few little tweaks and we're perfect. That's right 1C, we want our cake and we want to eat it too. Then we want to steal other peoples' cake, but we need authentic cockpits true to the aircraft to do so. And we thank you for your support!

I personally am going to love this game. It will be my favourite game on any console. The more DLC they bring out the better, whether I have to pay for it or not. I will no doubt buy it all!

Can you sticky that thread? EDIT: nm - I see you already did that.

It makes sense to have where everyone can see it so they'll realise that MORE planes where added W/O cockpits to add variety to originally planned smaller list.

People seem to think the number planes was set in stone from the beginning and the devs just got lazy and didn't do cockpits.

Actually, flying gliders you need to use math at times. Not every second or every hour, but you do when your trying to stay aloft
