So planes always fly at high altitude? Who sayd FlightGear is just about planes.. So far I have noticed vehicles like cars, boats, motorcycles and what about sea-planes and helictopters and harriers. Even human beings (walker)
There are so many situations when low level water details would make a high diference in how realistic the simulator would look like.

The way FSX and X-plane used this is vastly overdone and unrealistic, and so I think this has a very bad pain to gain ratio.
As I see it, I will agree when it comes to oceans and big seas, but when looking at fjords, lakes and rivers i found X-plane high in water realism. I dont even think FSX has that much of a overdone reflection shader.

Translation - I have no plans to add this to the ALS framework.
So if someone else find this a nice feature to add and bring you the code that works, you would'nt even implement it as an option for those who want it?
I higly support this feature also!!!! It would be awasome to she more water details! Taking a couple of Walkers on a picnic down by the lake hand in hand.. How romantic would that be
