In reply to WinsAloft:
A little offtopic, but do you mean static aircraft included in (payware) sceneries, or the static aircraft that the simulator loads in to populate the airports? When flying on Vatsim I’d recommend turning off the autogenerated statics for situation you described. Statics in sceneries are sadly not as flexible. I always get a little annoyed when they’re included, but oh well.
Name plates above players would also indeed be lovely to have. If you want to vote for that one, have a look at this thread: VATSIM / IVAO / LNM etc ALL need their SimConnect injected aircraft to show labels - #45 by MikeB54331
