exactly, and that is the way it is in most smaller prop planes, and is the case in most ww2 fighter planes under most normal conditions
other then some people wanting to see altered movie effects in the sim instead of a real representation of what a spinning prop looks like in real life, or the one poser with limited real life experience who suddenly believes himself to be the lone expert on this on earth, most experienced pilots of smaller prop aircraft would agree it should only be barely visible under most normal conditions. its not really an issue that is disputed.

exactemundo !!
the single main issue is that in 95% of cases the prop should simply not be visible on a pc ww2 aircraft simulator, and if it can be achieved that under certain light or weather conditions the prob in real life does become somewhat visible, this does NOT mean we should have that "effect" imposed on players 100% of the time under all visibility/light/weather conditions for the sake of the fake-real crowd who want to see a prop spin (even if in real life you couldnt see the prop at all).
