Any vote after the public confirmation of clickable cockpits is worthless. Whoever felt like voting NO will now just not vote at all, cause he can't change the fact that there will be clickable pits.

Having clickable as an option (if it is there already, meaning nothing to lose at this point) is great. We have to understand that this will attract a lot of people who now stick to Microsoft Flight Simulator X, and with it, the professional third party makers of aircraft.

I look forward to trying it. I never tried it.

I may be wrong, but it sure is a point to think about.

MSFS has clickable cockpits and there is still a great number of often rather obscure addon aircraft available. SOW will be much more open for 3rd party addons, thus nobody can refuse a plane if the accuracy is less than "perfect". I doubt anybody won't release his plane only because some animations are based on guesswork.

I think the bigger problem will be to find enough references about the internal structure of airplanes to make a high quality damage model. Olegs team is working with original manufacturer drawings. Only for most of the more popular planes these are available for sale and then rather expensive.
