At least I had a good laugh

Thx !
Perhaps you can understand now why a isolated pilot (not so) in the middle of the channel will only reluctantly use his emergency boost and why he wld be pleased to read in the plane log if the guy right before him has alrdy burnt the engine.
By the way the IL2's 109 had a good eng damage model. Some adaptation wld seem necessary (like a random time length and an initial cte tracing the past use of boost by the player). Just my 2 cents...
