I guess there will be an option to turn the rings off (in the training pic).

What i liked most was that they seem to have really researched the aircraft operating manuals.
If you take a look at the messages, the instructor says he's unlocking the slats for you. Well, the Tiger Moth slats were automatic, but could be locked in the closed position so that they wouldn't open when you don't expect it during maneuvers.

Since they are useful for takeoff and landing however, the usual thing to do was start with them unlocked, lock them after take off and then finally unlock them again during the approach.

Excellent attention to detail not only modelling that, but also having the "experienced instructor" do it for us "rookies" and also tell us about it, so that we gradually start learning about such stuff and remembering it in future flights.

That's exactly the kind of stuff i wanted to see in SoW, the little things that will keep our hands full even when there's no combat around.
