im whatchin tora!tora!tora! and it got my blood boiling for some warplane action!
Also i was wondering what everyones opinion is on degree of realism, because some maneuvers youd want to do are technicaly impossible in old plans, wings would snap off. Im thinking not full on realistic, but enough wiggle room to alow some awsome flying.

What maneuvers are technically impossible? Short of post-alpha maneuvers requiring thrust vectoring, any World War II-era aircraft should be able to accomplish any maneuver you ask it, provided you have enough energy and altitude to complete it. Immelmann, split-s, barrel roll, snap roll, hammerhead, cuban eight, etc. are all capable in any number of this era of aircraft, all within the realm of NOT breaking the airplane.
Most WW2 fighters were stressed for WAY more than civilian-use aircraft, so having wings rip off is not something that would happen very, very rarely.

stand corrected. i dont pretend to know alot about the capabilities of aircraft of any era, still most players are going to want to be topguns, so thier expectations of flying and fighting will be unrealistic. whats the balance for the game? more real(to say challenging), or more um... cartoony, no, videogamey maybe (user freindly,easy). cant think of a good word without saying unrealistic, its a freetoplay videogame so expectations cant be to high, but hopes can. when flying do you feel like you have full controll or locked in edgeing this way and that way?
Asking any Alpha Tester to reveal the flight characteristics of in-game aircraft could cause said Alpha Tester to violate the Non-Disclosure Agreement, and as such, could remove said Alpha Tester from Alpha Testing. Please be careful as to what you're asking and how you ask it.
I'm sure you meant no harm in your inquiries, but none of the Alpha Testers are allowed to discuss the gameplay, flight modeling, included aircraft, etc. at this point. Might I suggest going to either Facebook or The Official World of Warplanes Site to see in-game screenshots. ('Course, I'm sure many of you already have...)
