I know Anton has been claiming BoP uses the PC Il2 flight models, but the P51D in BoP does not fly like the P51D in Il2. The P51 in Il2 1946 is a capable performer, fast and reasonably maneouverable, especially at high altitude, and while it can be a handfull to fly with a high fuel load it is in a different league from the P51 in BoP, which is at least 50mph slower and stalls in anything but the gentlest of turns.

Same goes for the P47, while the various models of Fw190 seems heavier than they should be (lower acceleration/top speed and easier to stall than PC versions).
Rightly noted, I hope the extra time they are taking on the update addresses the fuel load issues on all affected "flying boats" and in turn gives all of them a fighting chance. Maybe even some credit. I would play this game 100% more than I have lately ( 0% ). It just gets frustrating to the point I need to vent every now and then...
