Higher air speed=more oxygen in to the fire=extreme temperatures=faster destruction of the aircraft.

I have read, the memoirs of Johannes Steinchoff, and he wrote, that the propellers of the Bf-109 in Sicily were shining at the sun as a mirror, because they where polished as mirrors from the dust picked in to the air by the aircraft starting in front of the next Bf-109. The dust in to the air have polished the air propeller, because of the rotation of the propeller in to the dusty air full with sand. The mix of dust and sand acts just as sandpaper at the paint and the metal. Please consider this effect, and implement it in SoW.

We have some modeling depending of altitude....

As for prop, when we will probably model conditions of aircraft use in Sakhara, then probably shinning of such type maybe present.
