Meta Note I'm not sure if its the software or the OP who added the "?share=1" parameter but thank you for including it in the link. The flag makes reading quora possible. If HN doesn't add this parameter by default I think it would be a worth while upgrade to the site. Lots of great content is locked in quora otherwise.
Off Topic: Man! Reading this answer so makes me want to play those FlightSim games of the yesteryears like Apache Havoc, Commanche, Jane's F/A 18 Hornet etc etc. Does anyone have any suggestions for a modern Flight Sim game? Thanks!

Good response, worth the read. Heck the response alone could justify their own article. As an aside: I hate quora' site design so much I have blacklisted it using Google Personal Blocklist. Somehow I dislike it more than Experts Exchange (which is also blacklisted), it is just super cluttered with nonsense, rolls into the comments section without warning and rarely offers good content (see Experts Exchange again).

I remember you used to see experts exchange or the like come up in search results and you could block it right there, in your search results without having to go to a separate page. Since they've hidden it, I honestly thought they'd removed the ability to block websites. Thanks for letting me know I just have to hunt for it. I wonder why they removed that option from search results?

Games to keep an eye on (if you like combat) http://www.polygon.com/2014/6/9/5791924/e3-2014-marks-the-re...
Been out of games for a while, but looking forward to Oculus and whatever today's Thrustmaster equivalent is :)

Commanche was great. Strike Commander with a full Thrustmaster setup back in the day was epic.

The hardcore side of combat flightsim gaming for me was Su-27 Flanker (http://www.mobygames.com/game/su-27-flanker), published by SSI. So hardcore I never actually managed to complete a full mission! It was a bit dry, without any campaigns or any kind of career tracking, but man was it detailed! It made me fall in love with the real-life Flanker.
And of course, Falcon 3.0 by Spectrum Holobyte. Another awesome flightsim I spent a lot of time with but never managed to complete a single mission with. It was obvious this sim was a work of love.

Someone needs to make a Stack Overflow to Quora's Experts Exchange (preferably by just using the Stack Overflow codebase/framework).
So why don't they include two radars, one for sweeps and one for tracking? I know, I know, weight, power, etc. At the same time, isn't that the obvious answer?
