ElAurens,

About human multi-crew aircraft in join-in-progress dogfight mode ..

think .. you'd have to sync the players into the aircraft before hitting "fly"

likely technically possible, but how might that work in the interface ?

1. Players would need to select same base on brief screen.
2. Players would need to select same aircraft and probably all same features on arming screen
3. I think then, you would need a new button on arming screen, perhaps labeled "Seats", which would turn green when 2 or more players had selected correctly .. when you then hit that button
4. It takes you to new screen naming aircraft selected with list of pilots similar to coop aircraft selection screen, but only the one plane selected and showing only players that had selected the plane, then you ready up in same manner as in coop.
5. Then the players hit "Fly" from that screen, become synced together in the aircraft and join-in-progress together.

Would be nice feature, but significant reprograming involved, new interface screen design.

So.. it's not just 'silly' we don't have human multi-crew for dogfight / join-in-progress mode, it would require some new things to implement.
