Here are my observations:

1) I have never got input lag in SP, only in MP, however 95% of time I play MP only.
2) It has happened on various servers.
3) Almost always everything around feels like there is 40-50 FPS (and FPS counter shows that), but plane reacts to controls like it is 5-10 FPS only. Or in other words, it feels like controls are being polled multiple times less frequently than they should be.
4) Very often, input lag is accompanied by some lagging plane in proximity. Once such plane flies away or is destroyed, input lag disappears.

Maybe there is some synchronization issue in netcode, because of which one lagging client can "slow down" other clients?
