Most of these "role playing" or "housekeeping" functions don't require animation, just adding the appropriate options to the commands menu, and maybe a bit of programming.

All Crew

Can inform the pilot of damage to parts of the plane the pilot can't see, but which they can.

Can inform the pilot of the location of friendly and hostile planes WHEN ASKED (not just randomly calling off the positions of other planes in the sky like they do now.)
These two would be useful and maybe not too hard to implement since crews call out hostile planes already and all planes seem to have generally the same damage model. For example:

Command: Damage Report
Answer from crew: minor damage to outer left wing, missing left elevator

Command: Nearest Hostile Location
Answer from crew: Enemy fighter at 4 o'clock
