Good stuff with the ground units that's for sure, I'm glad they added better zoom for the binos too.

[+Dave]

I noticed nothing for the Saber though. 

[EricJ]

I don't fly it enough (though I'm itching for a joyride though) to notice most bugs, like the stuff with the A-10C, I'm finally getting to the navigation stuff so some of the stuff applied to stuff I just didn't focus on.
