I'm okay with no plane display trought F10. It is still possible to navigate without, using charts/beacons/VOR/VFR (or CAM V). Every aircraft has an autopilot or trim capabilities, even the UH1H has an autopilot misc option to replace the copilot. There's no need to make a full flight plan like in reality, with SID/STAR or whatever kind of stuff that requires a ton of WPs. The Bullseye offers a good reference reguarding the conflict itself, but it's still possible to add a L/L WP over the shared AO. I don't get it when people say "it's not possible without F10 as we are in a 2D environment with bunch of displays, we do not feel Gs for instance". Well, you do have avionics with bunch of needles wich is enough to navigate. Ingame charts are aswell handy (trought Shift + k) as those display main terrain data such as rivers, powerlines, roads, that's all you need to know when you're doing VFR.
Here's how I proceed for every sorties, first I'm gathering informations with BLUFOR about the active AO and the current CAP/CAS aircraft situation, I take a look at the tactical situation via BS cloud, I regroup my wingmen, I brief them quickly about the departure airfield, the runway in use, our flight level for transit, our task and the destination, potential frequencies usage, formations usage, callsign and wingmen assignation within the flight package... I then enter 1 to 3 WP depending on the situation to get good IFR references, for instance one straight on the AO, one as our homeplate and one as an alternate airfield. That's how we proceed. It doesn't take much time to setup, for sure less than 10 minutes from A to Z.
Finally GCI are aswell able to give vectors, either towards homeplate, tankers, or as a snap towards a specific group to form up with. Some people should have already heard me on the net asking for vectors to our lovely GCI. As now with SR there no more stepping on each other, that gives way more free room to the GCI for talk-on.
