I think we're all agreed that compromises in fidelity have to be made to allow SoW to run on current home PCs and allow for the extra environmental modelling that military sims generally lack.

However, in no way does this make SoW default automatically to game status. In my opinion saying that is an insult to the skills and vision of Oleg and team. This is as close to real as Oleg is able to get us based on current hardware limitations. Knowing how Oleg operates, if PCs were more capable we would have proper airflow dynamics modelled by now. It just isn't possible yet on a home PC.

SoW will give us a pretty accurate flight experience. It may lack some of the subtle control inputs and response to airflow that a military simulator can offer but a comparison to mario bros on PS1 is way out of order.
