When we talk about details like how the fuselage of a plane should sway with the waves when a plane crashlands into the sea I think adding an element as focal as a pilot into a an plane is well worth concidering.

Especially since this is probably something that'll be very hard to mod aferwards.

Edit after seeing a few repliers from Oleg & co: This is ofcourse the decision of the development team, but I think it's important that they're aware that visible pilots and other immersion enhancers are a very important factor for many simmers.
