I agree 100% with this. While not a pilot, I have flown many times in the front seat of a single engine aircraft, even once in the waist gunner position of a B-25. The propellor disc is essentially invisible in almost all conditions. I do find it comical that in the modded side of the game, they have chosen to over emphasize the prop effect. I think they have seen too many movies and have not spent any time in real aircraft.
Another issue with the prop graphic effect is how it's relative size changes. Go external and draw an imaginary line from the outer diameter of the prop disc to the pilot's eyes. Now look at the prop from inside. It is far smaller from the cockpit view, which is wrong.
