My 58" display's native resolution is 1920x1080p and I use to play on a 50" Panny with a native res of 1280x720. I tried the native res in AH on both displays with the same result - it looked awesome with no stretching but the screen was cropped vertically even though it completely fills the display. IE- The bottom row of guages is cut off on the P51 along with precious sky above the windscreen. For gameplay reasons only, I stretch 1280x1024 with a couple inches of black on both sides but no loss of vertical real estate. I tried 1280x960 but AH would not launch. I find it odd that it will launch with a custom widescreen res of 1980x1080 but not 1280x960 which I think used to be an in-game option.
YOU BASTIGE!! 1920x1080p, wow!
You should try to just use the arrow keys to move further back in the plane. That way, you can see all the gauges, and get back the sky above the frame of the airplane. It would be nice to see more with a widescreen, but maybe, a curved monitor would be needed to increase the POV setting in AH.
Then again, you have 58 inches to work with, I wouldn't mind black bars on the side to keep the image from stretching.
