From my understanding, IL-2 is more polished and realistic, where as Combat wings is more arcade style. Does anyone have a recommendation for which is better? IL-2 is $10 on Steam, and Combat Wings is $5, so buying both isn't out of the question. 

While I can't say about Combat Wings, I can say that IL-2 is very realistic, and there a huge amounts of planes you can fly.

Well, I got IL-2. It's got a ton of realism, to the point where I can't find out where my enemies are, but I'll learn eventually. XD

Their is an option to turn on little names above planes 

My vote goes for IL2.
