That is apart from the difference of the slope...

I've noticed the same. VSI readings during the climb were pretty constant, given the DB power curve and historical 109 climb curves, I'd expect climb to rise up to ca. 2000m, then decrease slowly up to the rated altitude, and drop off much quicker (engine is running out of umph, and the air is thinner too). The Il-2 manual's graph suggests the same..
Instead, its just like in Il-2, climb rate does not change much, if at all straight up from SL to rated altitude, then its dropping off... frankly I am disappointed quite a bit. Stalls don't show much improvement, CEM so-so (ie. rpm-boost limitations and detonation still not present), individual control characteristics and harmony for planes non-existant... they all feel the same. And I've found it impossible to break structure with even the silliest manouvres. Overspeeding kills it, but that's all...
