Exactly. Although, just to be pedantic, he might need to be able to distinguish between friendly and enemy tracer. I do this all the time in Il-2.
I'm not sure if this was the case in the BoB.

It's all quite interesting really.
I also think that, for a sim, a veteran would be more concerned about the gameplay, rather than the eye-candy.

Quite an interesting debate.
