I realy would like to see the in-flight radar turned off, because it would be much more realistic this way and it would improve the playability in the main arena. It also will force countries to plan and organise missions much more. Hope this is possible.

Kewl...
Hey Beefcake; yer invited to a non-stop-three-corner-HQ bombfest. None of the folks above will bother you; attempt an intercept or whine when the dar's go out.
HA!
Be honest gents.. with that 'dar' overlay in the MA you are able to see where the fight is; determine if it's an offensive or defensive situation developing; what the general state of affairs in your area is, keep tabs on your wingies; yer squaddies; where the goon yer capping for is... etc etc etc.
For the MA; the radar IS appropriate!
When the dar goes out in MA; everybody goes defensive immediatly; and offensive operations shut down like somebody threw a switch. It's a play balance issue.. like icons. If you wanna permanaent dar-less arena without icons; lobby for it in the HA or SEA. (which I support most whole-heartedly!)

Oh, keep the colouedr bars indicating aircraft in a grid. DAR is just a wee bit to modern, imo.

Realism would be to have controllers directing you to the enemy .. the alternative is to have the inflight radar.

I agree with Hangtime.
Radar in the general MA is appropriate.
That's why there is an arena of this type!
In scenarios, a future HA, or other venues, I would vote to remove it for in-flight ONLY! Keep it for ground vectoring though.

I'm with AKWabbit on this. Dots in the tower, bars in the air. This will allow me to do "radar duty" when I want to take a break from flying. I used to really enjoy this in the old Whatever-its-Blasted-name-was game.

I vote to keep the inflight radar as it is in the MA. After all, it CAN be disabled. It should be high on the list of targets at any field being attacked. Otherwise, it is just fine for the MA environment gameplay.
Since there seems to be a customer demand, I suspect we will soon have an HA with no icons or inflight radar -- for those who enjoy chasing friendlies in search of a fight.
