Just my $.02
Duke, it's not the cockpit irregularities that would be the problem.

I'll give you a scenario:

On Zekes, a full switch server, pilot 'A' has 6DOF enabled and pilot 'B' doesn't. Now A and B get in a dogfight. B is sneaking in below A for a belly shot where he should not be able to be seen.

But A simply leans over and looks down through the invisible wing root or leans forward and looks down through the invisible cowling and spots B easily.

Think about that and ask yourself how fair it would be to have, what is basically Wonder Woman view, on a full switch server.

If it's not going to be implemented correctly (and it isn't, IMO) then don't implement it at all.
