I think the last point is one of the big ones but it's part of a bigger problem - namely, that aircraft matchups don't work and one can't use the historical tactics effectively. EAW did a good job of portraying historical pluses and minuses.
Another GREAT thing EAW did was to model morale. If either squadron lost a certain amount of a/c, and depending on the level of the pilots they'd run for home base. I HATE having to fight to the death every time and it leads to highly unrealistic attrition rates. If you read about the BoB for example, it's common for hundreds of planes to be involved in a battle with say, 4 a/c shot down. A similar situation in this sim would lead to hundreds of a/c destroyed. I believe that morale is the major factor that needs fixing.
