I do miss games like Longbow 2 where you could go full realism and BE the gunner position having to switch through the FLIR and other systems to lock on to stuff... managing radar beam sweeps and the like.

Dred, 

   Maybe it is  LOL    engine management would be something that I would like to see added into AH.     

So would I. but the Newbs would never be able to handle it.
Maybe if they tied it into AC performance like the stall limiter works. where you can toggle it on or off. Turned off. Your aircraft woud work within its safety limits all the time.
Turned on You would have more control and better performance. But you would also suffer from the risks of say, having the throttle firewalled all the time. And thus suffering engine damage.

Can't remember if it was pre or post patch. Not much would've changed the outcome.

Meh  I likes my planes like I likes me cars. OLD!         I've always found that modern aircraft games never held my attention like a good old prop ride.
  See ya when ya get back. :)

BUT it does have an OLD aircraft in it...Operational deliveries to the USAF started in 1975/1976 and production ended in 1984 after 715 were built. Still that isn't bad for an aircraft that is so ugly its beautiful to have a 35 year run as an attack aircraft.

I prefer helicopters so I bought DCS - Black Shark instead since I fly them better than the Jug. A10 looks muuuucho better graphic wise but maybe i'll try it this summer. It still brands the name "thunderbolt" ...  :cool:
