And the game should be the new Free 2 Play Microsoft Flight Sim

I'm thinking of trying it but don't want to give them a download. :p

I'll think of it as a spiritual Pilot Wings 64 successor rather than an FSX sequel. I also like how much the DLC costs... buy the few DLC that is already out and it will cost you full price already.

And as a listed feature on the Steam page, the P-51 has no cockpit. :p

DCS cockpits has the best graphics and detail I've seen though, especially after they introduced cockpit shadows. ED just needs a better engine for terrain, and they are working on it as well.

I thoroughly enjoyed both Ka-50 and A-10, but ED really needs to introduce a PvP aspect so the popularity can explode exponentially. It gives me shudders just thinking how would it be if we had F-15 vs Su-27 in DCS fidelity.

DCS A-10 and MIG-21 look to have the best cockpits in any flight sim ever.

Smoke is important though. In BS1 and FC2 the smoke hardly rises which makes spotting enemy locations harder than it would be in real life.

And it looks like aircraft are still missing smoke. This is a graphical affect that really needs to be added in. The MIG-29A has a rather smokey engine compared to the Su-27 and F-15C which are essentially smokeless. This makes the MIG-29A easier to spot from a distance in real life. Likewise, the F-4E/F throws out a lot of smoke. I saw a German F-4 fly over me at low altitude once and it poured our far more smoke than any F-16 or F-18 I saw. :p

I'll be getting A-10C and MIG-21 eventually. I have almost no interest for P-51, especially because I don't want to fight SAMs and jets in it.

Though I'd rather take FC3 + addon aircraft like Mirage 2000s and F-16s over DCS.
