It would be nice to see speed brakes come out when the lead calls for 'Boards'. Is this an issue that has been discussed? I haven't seen it.
As a pilot, I truely luv LOMAC, The only thing I'm real dumbed about is the taxi characteristics. NO Brake axis for toe braking pedals. (spent alot of $$$ on CH Pro pedals for nuttin'). Other than that I find the CH controllers are the best for lomac due to the possible 96 available commands via three modes.
I have Mode 1 set up for primary flight commands, Mode 2 for weapons, and mode three for navigation

Actually, I haven't trued with all the A/C but I know this:
You can see the speedbrake online on:
F-15C
Su-27/33
You CANNOT see it on the A-10.
So if someone pops their airbrakes in an A-10 you won't see them open online.

I mainly fly 15 and 29 on-line, haven't tried the A-10 that much.

You don't have to fly it - of course you'll see your *own* airbrakes open ...
If you have a wingman who's in an A-10 and he deploys his airbrakes though, you won't see them open.

Sorry about dat,
I knew the F-15 and other A/C speed brakes were viewable. I should have refined my statement.
Will the A-10 speed brakes be a revision in upcomming patches?
Oh yeah, how about an axis for toe braking
