Ok, so maybe this has been discussed and dropped, well I wasn't here then. I'm nearly finished reading a book a friend loaned me called "Half a Wing, Three Engines and a Prayer"(excellent by the way) and couldn't help but notice the repeated mention of contrails and how they helped to spot E/A as far as 6 miles away. We have weather now, well sorta, so why not?
Next item is oxygen systems for the crew. One cannot buy an USB oxygen mask but should it not be included in the damage list? Many a crew had to deal with the O2 system getting knocked out on one side of the plane due to ack.
And last but not least is gun freeze ups at high altitude. Once your over a certain altitude condensation and low temps should be a factor. If this were implemented, maybe it would thwart some of those lone Lancasters at 30k killing fields at their leasure.
Don't misunderstand me, I don't think the game HAS to have these things, it rocks just the way it is. (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif) I'm just curious, thats all.
