If Nick has time, he can probably put this among many other features in. Unfortunately Nick doesn'. None of these features are as easy as click a button.
Sorry to contradict, but this specific one seems really trivial. Just add an onClick="window.open('
http://youplay.it/play/bm_PlanesChart.asp?PlaneCode=****&NoList=1')" to the airplane img and you have done.
This kind of javascript window.open is usually (not 100% sure) blocked by popup blockers. 3rd party web controls usually use some <div> tags to bypass the popup blockers and fake the popup. He has the Plane Information when you do a mouseover on the plane. If he add the movement stuff on that, then it may be too much if you are playing in a small screen like that of a 13" or netbook.
I tried that before posting, and is not blocked by FF 3.5, IE 8 and Opera 10. Anyway any useful popup blocker should not block intentional clicks. The test is still on
http://www.ivlivs.it/test.htm if you want to try yourself.
However, any way you do it (there is actually already a working popup for user profiles), I just wanted to say it would be useful to have the manoeuvres of the enemy at hand, without having to scroll down to the aircraft list.
I agree with you that the hover box is already large enough and should not be touched.
Depending on you setup, the "popup" can end up opening a new tab. If that is the case, its usefulness is questionable.
