I really wonder what is on that Hurricane so much different from the one I can fly without any problem in my selfmade mission? There are only 2 versions of the Hurricane anyhow in the game, can they be so different in handling?

Now that I learned to get along with the BF109 and the Hurricane, I`d like to play the campagnes. On the german campagne I get at least the plane in the air. The rather minor problem there is, I cant protect the reconflight before it gets killed (mission failed).

Well, well, .... things will hopefully improve

I think there's a problem with the mission. The centre fuel tank is empty whilst the wing tanks have about ¾ of a tank of fuel in them (I didn't read the brief so it might simulate a very fast turn around\scramble). If I use the standard Hurricane Mk.I procedures of starting up (with the fuel cock set to reserve), she refuses to fire up. However, if I select the main tank..she fires up just fine.
