Customisation? The ability to customise anything; you name it, other than time, place & weather for a little you against the same enemy & the ability to stick on a missile or 2. Customization, the simple abilities to t/o, land, fly to a designation, even the simple customization to t/o into an enjoyable free flight, being able to choose multiple wingmen, to fight in a training scenario with a little mix & variety, change a livery or two, to name but a few simple ones.

Re: Cockpits to allied aircraft; do you not regard the PO-2 as being an allied non-bomber aircraft for starters. Do you also regard the P-51 as having its own cockpit?
I don't know how the development of the game was worked out, but they didn't put in extra customization options for some reason. If it was out of laziness or perhaps they saw no need to include it in the game, then I will complain about it.

The P-51 does have a cockpit, it's just the wrong one . I won't deny that BoP has plenty of faults, (like the Po-2 you mentioned, which I had completely forgot about) but to sum up my views:

I do feel ripped off as a console gamer, but with BoP ( and other games) I can enjoy stunning graphics and fun gameplay with the portability of a console.
