It gives you a much more detailed flying proceedure with many of the cockpit functions modelled and workable.. This gives you a better understanding of proceedures in WWII aircraft.. You will note I say 'many' of the cockpit items are workable, but still not all!sure i have.. like it, but u cant shoot others in FS..
For a WWII combat sim it just isn't feasible to model all proceedures 100%.. Try flying in a dogfight and try to use all the functions in a 'clickable' cockpit.. It doesn't work believe me.
If you had all the functions to hand and within reach like a real aircraft that would be different, but on a computer sim it's impractical as things stand now..
I fly real aircraft.. I also fly their representatives in sims.. and although sims give you the idea and are similar in some respects.. it's still pretty different from the real thing.
cant change my mind though i want it as complicated as it was in real and as it is realistically possible.. keyboard have enough keys to cover all necessary controls, if u add shift, alt and ctrl combinations..
for analog controls theres always a way in building a simple control panel for a few bucks..
im not tryin to argue with u, i just want it as close to real as possible, doesnt matter if it makes me uncomfortable..
