Not saying you can't, it's just not realistic to me.

Hmmmm, I thought the zoomed in view (30 POV) *is* how a real pilot would see it. Because of the size limitations of an average 23" monitor, backed out views of 70 POV and 90 POV are provided (as in most sims) to take this monitor size limitation into account in order for us to have some kind of Situational Awareness.
In an actual WW2 fighter cockpit, the gunsight is physically very close to the pilot's head -- just as the "zoomed in" 30 POV depicts it!
What we really need is a curved movie theatre-sized monitor about 4 feet in front of us. Then 30 POV would be fine in ALL respects. LOL
(Actually, some guys on this forum come close using 3 monitors with the video card(s) that can handle it.
