Correct me if I'm wrong but I haven't seen one video here showing regular yellow flames coming from a running engine. All are either blue or red once the initial startup is complete. Also no night shots show the side panels being lit up by the exhaust flames. That backs up my personal experience from 2 night runs on a Lanc and a Merlin Spitfire.
I think the thread has done its job well.

+ 1. I totally agree.
It's the first time, since about 5 years, that i post. My first few words will obviously be for Oleg : I love you !!! Oups sorry, i exaggerate a bit !
But i love your work. Long life to you and your team... All your work philosophy is perfect to my mind, and i'm sure BoB will be astonishing, awesome... Please don't change anything to your working way, you and your team are fantastic ! However, that's right it becomes to be very hard to stay patient, because we wait for some years and now, we know that the release date is for soon (please don't tell me something else or i die at this second). But at least we know that we wait for the best simulation ever ! And yet many many many thanks for your kind work, for Il-2, for your attitude. You're the best. Because you do better than that we could dream... Thanks again.
