Short answer: Not natively, but yes – using Vorpx or by playing its successor IL-2: Flying Circus , which shares the same flight models and aircraft.
0:00-0:05 – VR headset + HOTAS setup. 0:05-0:12 – Gameplay clip (Flying Circus VR), leaning out of cockpit. 0:12-0:18 – Enemy tracers flying past your face. 0:18-0:25 – Stall, spin, ground rushes up → cut to black. Just buy IL-2: Flying Circus Vol 1
After hours of tweaking Vorpx, I can confirm: ✅ Immersion is incredible – leaning out of a Camel feels real. ❌ Spotting dots is nearly impossible on a Quest 2. ❌ Performance tanks over 6 planes.
