Second according to pilots I have talked to, one could run at full power and not overheat. WEP and idling in the runway would cause problems.
You'll find overheat is a bit more realistic in the next patch (4.11) and running at 110% all day long will cause serious overheat that will necessitate reducing throttle and opening the radiators.

Radiators definitely reduce the speed of the aircraft and most certainly cool the engine quicker but it isn't always an instantaneous effect.
