THAT would be awsome. Enabled from the ports, or even airfields if they also have wheels.

Dogfights would be more realistic, and people would have to be more careful.  No more yank and bank noobishness.

Good fighters in  WWII, like the Fw190 and Spitfire, were pretty much "yank and bank" once in combat.  Bad fighters, like the P-38, had a lot of things the pilot had to manage in combat.

I'm with ya.  Lose the points the perks, the rank.  Make it about the flying and fighting.

even if they did this though, wouldn't there still be hordes? i mean, last night in lw, i followed a corsair off pretty far from the main furball over TT island,,,,,,,we were fighting, and to be honest, i think he wasn't too far from gettin on my six.......but next i know, there's a tiff, la, and spit ALL commin for me,,,,and i DID see them a ways out, they just got there WAY faster than i expected.......so basicly, although not on too big of a scale, i got ganged. it would seem to me that since this mentality is so ingrained into most pilots in the arenas, it'll continue till some way of making it NOT a good idea to do it comes along.

as for rank.......ya, sometimes i look to see what mine is......but for the most part, all i personally want is good fun fights....be it in furball,(sometimes i feel safer in furball, as everyone's too busy tryin to stay alive to gang a single plane) or 1-1.

anyway, that's my 2 cents.....

How about engine problems, such as a 262 will suddenly flare up sometimes or 163 will suddenly explode when starting up the engine!
It would really be funny to see 163s spontaneously combust!

[Ack-Ack]

Removing auto-retracting flaps from the game.  If I'm dumb enough to keep my flaps out when I go to fast then let me pay the consequences.  No need for this hand holding coddling feature.  

No, this isn't an excuse to be able to keep my flaps out beyond their limits, it's must wanting to have more control in deciding when my flaps should raise and not having the game deciding it for me.

[SgtPappy]

I agree with Panzer IV and Ack.

The 262 pilots were trained religiously to not move their throttle controls back and forth too quickly. Flame outs occurred often and in numbers.

Plus the whole flaps thing is understandable. Finding noobs trying to use flaps then jamming them would be so fun to watch. Also, it's an excuse for ME to push my flaps beyond the limits

Also more diversity in Italian planes is always welcome. I never fly 'em but some people do and need more choice.

Landing gear shouldn't snap off at all from excessive speed.  I don't know why simulators insist on doing this, especially at relatively low speeds.

For once i can agree with you.
They shouldnt snap off, they should bend and stay on that position for ever, they should create a ungodly amount of drag and -g's due to that drag at high speed.

Not what you were counting on tho.
