We all know that this sim has a steppy learning curve and that new players need even more than a week to be useful. The problem is that we dont know who is still learning and who is not. Sometimes you are giving some clear instructions to somebody and has no response, no reaction, even if these instructions are mandatory to survive. Sometimes you are asking for help to a nearby player and again, no response, no reaction. Some veterans explode with these players ignoring that they could be new ones still learning to take off.
To solve that, I propose a new setup option to enable the "new player" flag. If enabled, and "L" of learning will be shown with the player name in the plane icon.

Will the red guys get to see their 'L' plates? If so, they'll be hunted down.
To be fair, only greens should see the 'L' plates. But then you should have an option to disable it if ya dont want them showing.

is it a litle of topic but about diferent marks like L learning, W warping or Red spiner for squad leader ? in real life the squad leader was easy to recognize for adverser, but to awoid 256 squad in AH give some adition for squad members , so they can be also praoud about the plane, just for exaple the score ranking marked on plane like the symbol of air wictoryies , higher ranking more marks on plane low ranking lets say below above 200 in list only 1 mark on plane

Obviously, only greens should see the 'L', and only when that setup option is enabled.

Ive been in AH for over a year now and im still learning a bit... Do I get an L? Maybe SL? :)

For the new guy,
If you ask a question and someone gives you any of these for an answer DO NOT listen!
'press Alt-F4' you exit game.
'Press Enter 3 times' you will bail from your plane.

What about a 'D' plate ?
meaning is obvious no ? :D
