Totally agree with OP. As long as the flight model is in the ballpark, I'm happy. I always thought one of the great things about IL-2 is learning the crap planes, being at a disadvantage, and then winning the fight. The excepetion would be the HS-129. In that case, just land it and bail when they start shooting, or get them to crash into you for the EAD. You die, he dies...it's a wash.
