I know it's implemented, but I believe it could be done better, with minor changes.

For examply, instead of you opening your refueling door to operate the Tanker Boom, you should get cleared precontact through radio, then the boom drops. this may also fix the Multiplayer issue.

I also would like the OPTION of relinquishing command of my aircraft to the Auto Pilot when I'm connected, or flying myself.

I think the Radio contact with the Tanker would make a big difference in the realism. and if they fixed the multi player boom issue.

Just a thought

I think the multiplayer refueling bug is one of the most important bugs for the Devs to look at, just my oppinion.

As many of you will know, i'v been running a lot of tests on the KC-10 during multiplay lately. I have noticed it is easier than it looks to refuel from the "Invisible" boom, once you get within 5-6 feet of it in either direction, the game will almost nudge your aircraft into position for you. Although even a fix that makes the boom always be down (and never up, even when not refueling) would be better than it is currently.

Heres hoping.
