I remember a post some time back about what they would really want from a
simulator, and someone made a joke saying

"...yeah and I also want to be able to wave out of my window, and see it in
the simulator, then I will be truly happy"

Well I was thinking, with all these satellites taking pictures, is it
possible (and by possible I realise hardware and software and the internet
would need to be very technologically advanced by this time) to just add
some kind of live video feed onto a terrain from a satellite that is looking
at the section that you are flying so your basically looking at a video
taking from a satellite.

I realise this is not possible at all, since each satellite (and there would
need to be alot to do this) would need about 1000 cameras at least and there
are alot of other things as well, but technically, would it be possible. Its
a nice idea I think

that drift in the wind!!

That would be cool. But I'm waiting for realistic damage and crashes. When
I stuff up my landing, I want to see the aircraft break into a million
pieces and explode in a ball of flame. Naturally, as you say, the smoke
from the crash should be visible from afar and it should drift with the
wind 😉

There are some third party add-ons for FS that will add crash effects.
Never tried any myself, though I have seen them around.

Yeah I would like more realistic damage, when I crash my 747 in to the
ground from 30,000 feet nose drive, I want a crash to show I've done it lol
