Can it be made slightly bigger?  what with the HUGE base icons the little town seems a little out of proportion.

And maybe make the GV icons a bit smaller -- same size as fighter icons.

The point of focus for the map is when you zoom in so about half a sector fills the clipboard map view. Then all of the tank icons, field name and elevation info stop cluttering a large dot. You also get a more accurate representation of your distance from the spawn or field.

This is like the old joke that voters are harsher to their beer brewer if he has an outage, than their politicians after raising their taxes. Death and taxes are certain but, fun and sex is only now.

Also, make the airfield icons smaller. You think you are close to an airfield when looking at the map only to see you are far away.

Maybe a checkbox option when you right click a map where you can turn all field icons off, add a box to turn all GV and Aircraft icons off when you wish, including your player icon about the size of the Spruce Goose..  When you head in to a town and there are 1 or 2 friendlies in the area, and their icons and your own player icon is covering up most of the field area, you cannot see the town circle at all.

Often I find them impossible to see. Zooming in sometimes makes it harder.
