I play Arma2OA a lot and this game uses a lot of animation for performing tasks and its not good, whilst animation is running you cant stop it or kill the animated person/object until the anim has finished. Also climbing out onto the wing and jumping is not realistic, from what I have read pilots would just jump/ fall directly from the cockpit, Once you have decided to jump getting out as fast as possible was the objective, you certainly wouldnt go for a little wing walk on your burning falling aircraft before jumping.

However I would like to see animation used for getting into and out off your aircraft before and after missions, being able to run around in first person on the ground and get into and out of vehicles must be a long term goal for this sim.

You raise some good points I hadn't considered. If they made pilot bail out animations selectable (including server-selectable for online play) then obviously the choice could be made. Personally, I draw the line at paddling a one-man dinghy back to shore.......
