Legally Blind CoD Pilots

[louisv]

My own real life experience is that it is very hard to see aircraft from another aircraft. Even if it would be many pixels. An aluminium colored aircraft reflects the surounding sky, unless you get the glimmer of the sun, you just don't see it.

Your eyes just dont cover a very big part of the sky from a cockpit. If you are on the ground, the aircraft you are looking at has a light background, and there is only half of a sphere to look at. In the air of course you need to look under also.

A dark helicopter flying over a forest seen from a higher plane is just a white or yellow seemingly empty ring (the blade tips, very important)...dark on top of dark. To me it is a lot easier to see an aircraft in any sim than in real life. We don't even have clouds to speak of in CoD or rain, haze.

I can see why it is so important in the game ( I haven't tried CoD online yet), it is just as in real life...
