That's OK. Also being able to fly through buildings isn't really such
a problem, although I generally prefer max realism (minus blood and
pilot disintegration). Still, I configured the bo105 to play a crash sound
if appropriate, and I would like to see the other aircrafts do the
same. This was desirable, because when flying from chase view with the
viewer position under the aircraft and looking in the sky, I often didn't
even notice a crash for a few seconds.  Not even the engine sound
stopped. Fooled me quite some times. A crash is only a "problem" in
real life, it can be educative in a simulator.  :-)
