Roger that. Thanks for taking the time to look and analyze all these planes though.
Despite being an amazing and hugely entertaining game, like a few of the players said, there are some glaring flaws.
This is why I don't like sim mode because all the planes are modelled very differently when compared to my research, which includes mostly data from published books about the Spitfire. "Spitfire: An Operational History" and Mike Williams' performance charts which he gained from both Germany's Luftwaffe records and Britain's RAF records.
The performance differences are quite massive. The fact that a Spitfire XVI rolls badly compared to a Spitfire IX is something to be looked at.
I can say though that IL-2: 1946 was far more accurate than BoP. I can't hope to play on sim mode in this game when comparing the performance differences because it feels so wrong.
