A full mock up Spit in the garden with PC on board and surround monitors instead of a canopy?

Hang on.....
true, but there would be ways around that too. As much as I don't recommend the real deal (I've been in a sustained 6G manoeuvre in several occasions and it's not pleasant at all...), we could still have ways to implement this: in real life you need to train to build a tolerance to it, and there are some specific actions you do to compensate the G strain (i.e. clenching your butt, abs, short but fast breathing etc..). Some people have a better tolerance (if you're not too tall, stocky and with a high blood pressure for instance you surely have better tolerance) than others, and bear in mind that apart from late in the war, there were no G-suits, and even those aren't a miracle.

I was thinking of a system where you put in your physical features (i.e. weight, height, blood pressure type) combined with your flying hours, which could give a rough model of your G tolerance, affecting the performance of your controls and the point of view movement and speed during the game.

But hey, this is kinda sci-fi I suppose, one that would adjust things in terms of dogfight realism.
