Yeeeeesssssssssssss.......... unless you want to skin the shark with friggen laser beams on his head or Santa's sled.  I would say that is the appropriate  place to draw the line.  Nice try, but no correlation between the two. 

I assume that you haven't read HiTech's replies.  To sum it up, the HUD provides the same information that actual pilots would be able to gain at a glance, and should aid in the areas of flight that  simply cannot be experienced in the cartoon virtual pilot seat.
Yes, I agree.  the HUD is a concession to better simulate the amount of information (i.e. feedback) you would have when flying a real plane.  You can't "feel" banking and G force in a PC simulation so to get that, some thing can be added to compensate for this loss. 

I don't see it as a bad thing.  Historically accurate, no, but a single lanc couldn't destroy HQ in real life either  :D

One thing I concern about is pitch ladder - it may allow much higher accuracy in dive bombing as it would be much easier to keep the pitch steady on a predefined angle - which isn't that easy. Even Ju-87 had a special "instrument" (on a side of the cockpit) to keep the pitch withing the range.

He has a point, the GV's better get ready  :devil

That said in aces high its easy to get fooled by the polygons on your screen and forget where the actual upside is, while I guess it is instinctive in real life...

that is a very highly polished P38 :eek:

Hands off suckas that's mine! :banana:
When I die bury me in a P38.

I watch day after day, week after week, tour after tour, the Bishops and Rooks take bases and win maps while the Knights stand there with their thumbs stuck in their butts. It's just pathetic!

A long time ago, in a world far away an employ of mine announced a mission we were running to the opposing. The next day when he was flying a very strange bug happen to appear in the game, I have NOOOO idea how it got there. The bug was any damage he did was applied to him instead. He just couldn't figure out how he was getting shot down every time when he was about to kill someone.

  hehehehe ok then sounds like business as normal then. most of the time i cant hit anything anyways so i wont worry . but 1 24 hour period of invincibility would sure be fun flying into the horde alone .

Will the new flight sim engine allow the GV'ers to set the Ground Clutter to as far as they can see?
The current terrain only shows ground clutter close to the gv with a range that appears to be roughly 100 feet.
I am just curious.
