Just curious... what BF3 maps have jets on 'em and how is joystick support for them?

I'd really like to start flying again, even if it's just in an inaccurate video game.
 
To get my Logitech to work properly I deleted all other control functions for aircraft (jets and helo's). To delete the control press and hold the escape key after you have selected whatever your trying to change. After I deleted all the parameters I put in the settings I wanted. Don't be alarmed if they don't make sense. For instance my throttles say something other than throttle up and down. I think it was button 1 and 2 for whatever reason. I really don't care what it says as long as whatever function I control on the joystick controls that function in game. Works OK so far. I imagine Keyboard and Mouse combos will be far more responsive (just like all past BF series were)

Ok. I'll give it a try. I got my Logitech X3D here so I'll give it a try.

First problem apparent: many of my infantry controls seems broken atm.
 
I like to fly jets with keyboard/mouse. with keyboard, W,A,S,D and control the jet with the mouse just like BF2! I can't set the binding to the point of where I want to control the jet with mouse and keyboard. If it won't let you, might as well buy a joystick.

Doesn't help with limited n-key rollover. I use an old IBM Model M keyboard (one of the really clicky ones!) so I'd rather have controls on a less limited device. That said, the joystick does allow more finesse but it still doesn't react quite like I expect it to. Hitting the edge of the level and just floating there (with stiff controls) really irks me, too.
