Personally, if I was a downed pilot, knowing that I depend on some real guy to rescue me (or not), would make me feel more like being part of a "real" world, and more respectful with other people/colleagues...

I just read in the book "KG200 the most secret german unit" about one pilot of german Dornier Do-24 from a "Seenotstaffel" who had saved more than 90 lives of german pilots from the sea, by the end of the year. He is really a great Hero ! Much more than others having taken hundreds of enemy lives , even if it was in the name of King and Country.....

Unfortunately he died in a senseless suicide attack to the russian bridges across the Oder and Neisse rivers in 1945, with his full of explosives Do-24. But this is another story.

Sea Rescue missions, as well as cargo missions in C-47/Ju-52or dropping agents or weapons to Maquis in Lysander, would give a really new approach to what is flight simulation....
