hello sirs.
What are the possibilities about providing modern aircrafts in the future (like f-16) in aces high? it could be interesting and fun.
Also an editor that helps make our own aircrafts could be good.

This is a WW2 simulation so Me262 is the only jet your going to get. IMO, an F-16 would create so much havoc and chaos that it would destroy THIS game even if Hitech ever did bump his head hard enough to consider this option.
Another thing with jets and the internet as it is, the faster your plane set is, it magnifies any lag or internet effects that disrupt flying.
Only jet I'd possibly included is the British one that never made combat in WW2, was it a Meteor? Even this is a stretch though and I doubt we would see it.

EDIT- and how does this even fit in the 'Technical Support' topic? This is definately a 'game play' or 'wish list' topic.

The metor was used in wwII but was kept on home soil to combat the v1 threat.This I know by most people is not called combat as the v1s were unmanned.
Once the v1 threat was illimated The war was almost over and alied forces reigned supream over german airspace negating the metors use over foriegn soil.

it would be fun to have a mod for Korean era gunfighters like the F-86 and MiG-15.

This might be fun for the occasional special event or CT. When we did the Special Event last fall with the 262s painted like Meteors it was pretty fun!

IMO it would be very difficult for HiTech to justify modeling AC solely for special events. There's a tremendous amount of data which needs to be researched and fed into the flight model.
