With the pilot's head turned, does that mean pilot's heads are going to follow what the actually controller is looking at? That'd be such a small, but awesome detail.
One request please though about the pilot... can you please move his arms forward a little. I've never seen aony fly a plane or drive a car with their arms completely at their sides straight down. =) Even if you just move his arms forward at 10-20 degrees I think it'd look a LOT better than just "lego man" look he's got (i.e. straight up and down). Otherwise though, like the new pilot look =)
