NO ICONS DANG IT!

make an option in the arena settings for ICONS ON/OFF, TRUE/FALSE, 1/0, etc., wutever!

u could even add a "no icons" option for per country

I just don't want any icons sumtimes, so there could be an elemet of stealth, ESPECIALLY FOR NIGHT OPERATIONS AND SCENARIOS!!!

Because you find the idea of simulating a pilot with eyesight so bad that he couldn't get a driver's license appealing for what reason?

It's been countered too many times to link to. Icons = necessary.

It isn't even fun for scenarios.  You need to close to within ~250 yards to ID a P-51 from a Bf109.

Got out and look at an aircraft at 250 yards from you and see how easy it is to ID.

I say yes for scenarios. Next time I get the option, I will beg the guy running it to turn the icons off.
