Mhm... almost all of those are in IL2 too... the difference is in CLoD there's no OVERHEAT alert.

IMO BoM will demostrate the complexity of this new engine. Somebody said that the russian pilots had to manage multiple levels to do the same thing that a german pilot could do with only one.

Now IF russian planes will work as the german planes than this will be proof that this COMPLEX Engine Management is an hoax.

My dream is to have a compulsory procedure at startup having to follow the machine's condition during the flight. I hope that in future I will have to manage the startup/taxi/takeoff of my tempest as Clostermann did.

A whole generation of pilots learned to treasure the Spitfire for its delightful response to aerobatic manoeuvres and its handiness as a dogfighter. Iit is odd that they had continued to esteem these qualities over those of other fighters in spite of the fact that they were of only secondary importance tactically.Thus it is doubly ironic that the Spitfire’s reputation would habitually be established by reference to archaic, non-tactical criteria.
