An LSO would be nice and a functional LSO would be great, but I expect that would require game engine code changes. As for the arrestor cables being made of elastic cord, yeah, they run out way more than the real ones. I'd like to see more realistic traps, but if I recall correctly Oleg mentioned that stopping player aircraft so rapidly would over stress the airframe and result in a crashed aircraft instead of a successful trap. Shorter traps would be nice as would barrier cables, but I don't know if it's possible.
A less "bouncy" Corsair would be nice too as the bounce issue was actually corrected by VF-17 while on their shake-down cruise with F4U-1's and the fix was incorporated into production aircraft during the F4U-1A production run. This would probably require a flight model modification and that is not going to happen.
Really wish Oleg had addressed these issues, but as my great-grandmother used to say, "you can wish in one hand and s**t in the other and see which one fills up first." Yeah, she really said that. :lol:
