It is something that just cannot be simulated properly with just visuals. Some people like the attempt, other people find it just wrong. So a choice between the two would be good.

Agreed, choice is good, unless it cancels out the effects of (server enabled) turbulence / wake when you're online.

However, the dash is certainly not stable for me (or stabilised by eyes/brain) whenever I'm off-road. Hell, it's not even stable coming up my driveway (which is pretty much off-road )

I can see what you're saying about the head position seeming to remain stable, whilst the plane bumps around (that is indeed true of sitting in front of a screen!). However, whether it's your head that is moving, or the plane that is moving, the relative movement is still the same - so it gets back to your statement about needing more than visuals to convince.

A better effect would be if the terrain moved around slightly but not as much as the air frame.

Turning the effects off is an essential option, as it was with the FFB gun shake, and stall flutter in IL2 which a lot of online players disable. Realistic or not is beside the point, some people simply will not put up with anything that interferes with shooting.

Maybe if we get one of those butt-kicker devices and strap it on our heads we'ld get a realistic vibration and our brains and eyes canh filter it our for us!

Real pilots didn't have an option to turn it off, and 'glued to the seat' really isn't something I'd like or want to see in IL2.

Reserve it for servers with easiest settings where newcomers fly.

The ignore list is a wonderful tool.
