thats where i have had the most success with voice command stuff.

I had a lot of custom voice commands set up for my combat flight simulator, and i almost never had to repeat my commands.

it was a lot of fun saying something like "Red Section Attack the Bombers." and those wingmen would respond and peel off and go to work. then "Blue Section Attack Fighters." and they would peel off and go after the fighters. just for example.

that way you dont have to go looking for keyboard combination mid fight because some of those air battles can be fast paced - you never have to go "heads down"
