Its not a SIM, its colors are wrong, the green tint is horrible all agreed....BUT the layout of the fields and trees is much better than CLOD it looks far more organic and real.
Could the size of the CLOD map be done like that? maybe...maybe not, but i wish it could.

Quoted for truth!

If WOP can be classified as a sim then I can call myself a pilot because I wear a leather flight helmet and run around with my arms outstretched making engine noises...

noone said anything about the gameplay!! We are talking about the landscape! Most sims we play lack the blue shade the atmosphere provides... If u want Il2 1946 to look real for example you need to increase the blue spectrum in the graphics section of the video card...

Did anybody ever try to measure the actual speed of the aircraft by measuring the map of England, between two known points in WoP, and timing.

It always surprised me how fast one can go from London to Dover in that follow the little dot on the map game with fly in a green fuzzy fish bowl dogfight.

WoP is nice graphics engine technology demo, but that's all (Eternity Project). It is not easy to develop as realistic a flight simulator as possible. Also sim fans are already demanding nowadays.

According to Google maps centre of London to Dover by road is 76 miles .
As the crow flies and from the south of London maybe 65 miles ish and at a speed of 200-300 mph you are probably looking at 10 - 15 mins maximum.
Mind you can't beat London to Brighton on a train LOL
