The updated cockpit and external model will make me very happy. My knowledge of what HMCS and suite 7 plus would bring to DCD and the A-10C makes me wish we’d get an upgrade that I would pay full price for.
For the life of me I can’t understand why people feel the need to come into a wishlist thread and repeat the “ED can’t because they have an agreement with the USAF” line. We all know that but it shouldn’t stop people from expressing their desires. Maybe if enough spoke up ED would consider trying to update the agreement with the Air Force.
The AoA vane isn't affected by the wind while on the ground very often, I think in all my years on the flightline I've only see it blown up or down when a strong storm rolls through.
Unfortunately things like this (and pilot animation) don't appear to be on EDs list of things to implement. I had hoped they would with the Hornet but so far movement is just slightly better than the A-10C pilot. Heatblur had the pilot movement down and although I have my gripes with RAZBAM at least you can actually have NVGs on the pilot at night.
Lights only work during certain times of the evening. I don’t remember what time they turn on but IIRC they won’t be on if the mission time is after 0600 even if it’s dark out still.
