The purity of it (WWI flying) is the biggest attraction for me.

It's already been said, but WWI aircraft are probably more suited to computer gaming (IMO).

Lower closing velocities = more time between seeing just a dot and getting to a merge - Being able to see the other guy's aspect earlier to maneuver against him.

Hope it's got full Track IR support too.

I'd guess skipping 1915 is also to avoid the Eindecker - the whining from the other side might be non-stop during the Fokker Scourge.
