A WWII fighter is a powerful and dangerous machine. Things can get out of hand very quickly if you don't know what you're doing. At the moment, you don't get that feeling with IL2.
I basicaly agree with what your saying, but, you just have to look at an online scramble at the begining of a mission to see that IL-2 isn't 'that' bad. Planes bucking and porposing, weaving from side to side, and take off runs accross the rough in big curving paths! I think the problem is with our own inflated opinion of how good our own piloting skills are!

In reality the pilots in question would be grounded and transfered to the infantry for abusing their planes.
