OMG......I was going to say OMFG but chat filter rules etc...
KEEP IT!!!!! I love the fact that when you look into the sun you see nothing but a ball of sun. I have not tried it with a fighter diving out of the sun yet but if someone takes the time to put the sun behind them they should be rewarded.
I do however recognize that for new players it is a steep learning curve. It would
perhaps be a nice thing to reduce the impact of the sun on lower 'ranked' players. Low rank = new player not has not flown this tour much. I am not sure how AH determines new guys from experienced so consider it a thought only.
