With all due respect, this discussion is exactly about trying to 'fix' the shortcomings of our software.

Your last sentence sounds like a person who has given up. Personally, I don't feel like that. I think more can be done to help give the player just a little more of that 'feeling' of being a real-life pilot.

I know I'm just a person sitting in front of a monitor, playing a game. However, sometimes....just sometimes, there are those magical moments when reality slips away and you are really there.....cruising over the Solomons, 1944....landing on a forgotten runway in the Crimea on a cold winter morning.

What we are talking about here are possibilities that can create more of those magical moments. What we need are people who still believe in those possibilities.
