Today I noticed that the stars in SimplePlanes match the real night sky.

As someone who's into amateur astronomy, I thought it was a nice touch.

    You know because the universe is large you might think that a painting of stars is most likely to be inaccurate well your wrong your probably going to be some what correct with the positioning of stars

    @Rohan It's in the north, just above the horizon around 3:00 AM.

    Oh, shit, you're right! I never noticed because even though I'm into astronomy, the light pollution in my area is so awful I can't see more than a few stars, but now that you pointed it out, I can clearly see Orion and Taurus. Thanks for pointing this out! I'm gonna go stargazing in a high altitude fighter jet now!
