I liked the Icon setting in the NAS, however, I think the 5/3 setting would be the next best thing to fighting tagless (er, flying nekid).

I was surprised when I could finaly join AK... I realy like those Icon settings but why would you want to set it differently for Friendly and Enemy ?

Set it to  3/3 !

On another Note, when I flew in Sunchaser's Playpen, had the experience of Attacking him with "Newguy"... doing passes at a B17 without Icons is realy more immersive than with Icons on as they are in MA. <S!> Sun, that was a blast, even if I pulled the cord too high

I think in RL you would be more aware of friendlies locations while in flight so I support longer range on friendly cons tho no more than 5.
I say if we have to have icons..
lose the chess piece, make green text fro friendlies red for badguys.  Lose the accurate ranges have them display >4k, >3k and then NOTHING under 1k.  (lose ranges all together in scenarios or HA)
Oh yeah and of course we need colour controls for the icons, for all them colourblind folks..
