if you cant see the tracers from the flaks you are blind... I dont think ive seen a Wirbel (let alone the Ostwind) shoot without tracers....

I never have tracers on no matter what I use.  I had a platoon Sgt. that would have knocked us upside the head if we had tracers loaded in our clips (was a grunt though).  Why point yourself out to anyone, plane or tank ?  Makes no sense.  We waxed more gooks that had tracers in their AK's by just lobbing M79 HE where the tracers came from. As to GV icons, If they could at least mask the icon if the GV is inside a bldg (barn/Hngr etc) or under heavt tree cover, then it would be most realistic.  I don't think any plane humming along at 200knots plus at 3000 feet would see a GV in a building or hiding in trees.  Heck if I am in a GV and an M4 is hiding in a group of trees and bushes, he is near impossible to see, should be the same for a plane. Planes can see a GV quite clearly still or moving from a long way out if it is not camod by cover.

LOL redcatcher, most in here are too young too even know first hand what an M79 is.

Your right, tracer use on the ground could very well sign your death warrant IRL.

If the GVs don't like getting bombed, they can hide in a barn and stay hidden.  I have a hard enough time hitting them anyway.

I am practicing, but I've noticed that if a GV hides in a barn their icon stays hidden until you can see them (looking straight down doesn't work, you have to look in the door)
