16km atmosphere mod

There's another very good reason to use the 16km mod in GWX, which is that (according to Rubini - and my own experience) it fixes the "watch crew asleep" problem. In 8km mode, the watch crew are blind (you can see to 8km but they can only see about 8 feet) but in 16km their eyes are just as sharp as yours, more or less, and they'll report contacts at 15km or more in good visibility, and more often than not they'll see the enemy before the enemy sees you (unlike in 8km).
