However, something I noticed right off the bat is how the gunsmoke actually responds to the wind or airflow during flight. When in the air the guns fire and the gunsmoke billows out and then flows behind over the wings, but on the ground, when the stationary Hurricane fires its guns the smoke is propelled forward! I thought that was a neat detail!

I remember seeing film of a diving BOB era Spitfire firing its guns and was surprised at the amount of smoke. Was trying to locate it to post here, but no luck so far.

at 10:45 you can see some ki46's or something shooting, the guns generate a lot of smoke, the only difference with the smoke in SOW is that the smoke lasts longer in real life.

now that I´ve seen some splendid work on the oil leaks and oil on the canopy, I hope there will also be oil trails over the fuselage like in one of my old flight sims called B17: the mighty 8th, when an engine leaked oil it spread over the wing and left trails on the elevator as well.
