Two questions
 

Should I be able to see enemy aircraft on the map? I don't, right now.

Also, I find the little white airplane, with the flag doesn't stand out very well on the map. Maybe it could be a different color and/or a different symbol to make it stand out. It's a minor thing, and I guess I can live with what we have. But...

Same experience here, as soon as enemy aircraft get spottet by friendlies they appear on the map. Friendly aircrews will also then report the position, heading and altitude of the enemy.
