Default FM/DM report Spitfire Ia

Hi,
some note on Spitfire:
in a recent MP dogfight I sustained a combat damage (some holes on nose panels), my fuel pressure dropped from +9 to +1 but I noticed no major drawback, I was able to keep on fight and returrn to base.

another episode...same contest, entering in a cloud I experienced the well know canopy icing, but not only... my anemometer an variometer gone crazy,
Vel drop from 200Mph to 120Mph with the needle bouncing up and down(not just frozen pitot effect but the clear sensation of deceleration). Clear tendency to nosedive with variometer needle as above. Never experienced before, just canopy icing occurred.
Is icing surfaces modeled or bug?
Cheers
