Alright ive held my mouth shut long enough regarding the night thing. We have an extremely grey area calling AH a simulation or a game. Being so not one of us like to say we spend a lot of money on "video games" don't evan own an xbox but I got the h.o.t.a.s. with a hot laptop (not some gaming machine its just nice). I'm going to say ten times outta ten "I have a ww2 simulator" and do I not? I don't go home to play, I go home to fly or with the wife. What I'm trying to say besides have you seen the beautiful night sky or how bout the clouds because without something up there in the background "they look like a bunch of damn models" - Leonardo Di Caprio Aviator. HTC took time into our sky and there on the right track also I thank them for it (although everone complains and its always sunny on aces) Now if were always going to have perfect conditions get rid of the gauges nobody is gonna need IFR were all great at VFR dogfighting, navigating, etc. I live in Vegas and our weather isn't as nice as the weather on AH. We have arena's for "playing around" but I enjoy the realism of the software and for the most part the people. Night, Clouds, Wind mandatory especially on historical events. K too the wishlist this one goes but nightfighters with a radar of the day installed in them. Imagine a town burning and giving off an orange glow. I like the one the guy said about the searchlights too badass. Excuse my language. Anyhow like everone else ill keep playing but if our HTC programmers aren't eating cause we all went to some other "GAME" they wont care if we ever login again so all I'm saying is its a no-brainer yes we absoultly must have metrological conditions accurate to real life. Including AT LEAST 45minutes of night, evan 7/11 has a one hour cool-down,
