AFAIK the ntrks only records positions of controls (Stick.. etc), speeds and directions. This allows for 'highly compressed' recording. The downside is as you mention as with this method of recording you need initial conditions and past conditions... and nothing in the future.

It might be and idea to only record positions and attitudes plus events. This might result in a bigger file, but will give you ability to play backwards.
Maybe TD can look at this. It should be viable as IL2 came out when PCs were a lot weaker. Nowdays with more powerful PCs, recording a more detailed ntrk shouldn't be a problem.
