What was it really like?

Ghosth, there's a few more or less essential things that's not included in AH.
General turbulence and slipstreams (wake turbulence)...and again, as hashed over a gazillion times, Icons that provides accurate range information.
 IMO, the flightpath of the rounds is also too flat, but I dont really want to go into that discussion  .

GUNJAMS

Anyone have any stats on the frequency of 'Stoppages'? And their causes. For any and all guns.

Nuther Question could the US .50 cals be cleared? If so did they use Air or what?

You can guess where I'm going with this and it should be modeled in every Sim/game.

Thanks

Nowhere, I'm afraid.

long range shots dont happen when we turn the icons off.

you actually see the markings of the plane you are shooting at.

oh and stratus clouds to escape into would make survival easier

I'm tempted to believe the number is below 50%.

Perhaps that is true daff, but what is that number in WB or AH?

As far as averages are concerened, you have to take that with a grain of salt. When I quote numbers of rounds, that should mean to you that "there is a high likelyhood the plane would be abandoned after "X" hits".

The overall experience for you should refelct that perception.

Well, in WB, it's probably around 40-50%, although it's a bit hard to tell the difference between fuselage exploding or pilot killed.
In AH, I've been PK'd once. (out of 20 or so deaths?)
