Yes, that was my job too...
But my aircraft, despite of his reputation, was far different from a warbird
As Dr. Laplace says, no sim
game can give you the same sensations as a real plane, as realistic it could be.
Compare to real life, this kind of game induces a very brutal way of piloting. You just have to see the way of piloting of some of the famous "aces" in the top leaderboard, specially when they fly 1v1, to be sure of that

! In real life, no warbird could support such "binary" maneuvers whitout breaking.
But it doesn't change my opinion, BoB is still really good in his category, especially for a "console sim" !The most important thing is to consider it just as its purpose: a game!
