In future probably you may add own texture and fly only alone without any other AI or online mates, because you computer will be able to calcualte resolution of all things(not just texture, but result of all things arount it) just for one aircraft but not for the hundreds and even not for the 10.
If you will give me real copy of manufacture production drawings that would show pitot in other place or other size, and trim tabs less then made, then I will ask to rework. If just several photos with different details, nothing will be done.
Same for spit. Most if not all fligth manuals have difference to real things. There are early flight manuals schemes and late for one the same aircraft. The early is for the first production series that went in troops. Late - for the whole series. And even in late - not always made the changes of production series. I have even one flight manual with the marks of real thing different to the real, that are done in squadron (as a sample).
The most correct things may say just engineers that were involved in production. I knew just one such old engineer, that died alredy.
Most aircraft already freezed in development and are in tunings of internal structure, engines, etc. In most cases will be no changes before release.

Hey Oleg,
Would it be possible to have SOW check the mission date when loading the aircraft for that mission and load the corresponding configuration (e.g. early or late). This could be very useful for including such things as gunsight or manifold pressure upgrades over the life of a given variant of an airplane. In BoB, for example, you could have the 1940 Bf109E-3 start with the rounded canopy and then switch to the square canopy in 1941. That way, the evolution of long-serving variants could be accurately modelled using the basic airframe and a palette of equipment upgrades available at different times. For online dogfight or un-dated missions you could just use the latest upgrades for any given aircraft...
...Just a thought. Great update, BTW.
Cheers,
