I thought that Oleg said he had no interest in developing a "flight sim"... I think I remember Oleg saying that he wanted BoB SoW to be a flight 'combat' sim... I think he said he was only interested in modeling the things that where necessary to simulate combat in flight.

I think that clickable cockpits is the proverbial "can-o-worms"... if Oleg starts getting into the business of making a "flight sim" it will be the beginning of the end...

This is what you get out of this discussion?

It's not about eclipsing MS - it's about drawing more users in who are familiar with that interface. No one said anything about eclipsing MS.

Also, for serious simmers - it provides more difficulty. If you were to limit the engine to what many folks would want - then Il2 would only have had Wonder Woman view and padlock.

Lastly - if this were solely a 'Combat flight sim' then how do you explain the inclusion of Su-26?

I wonder if you are familiar with all of the folks that use Il2 for acrobatic teams and racing?
