Does the spit when flown by the books show temperatures and operation times as it should?

How about the speeds and climb that can be achieved?

It should be possible to reduce radiator opening in normal cruise. Is this implemented?

What about the mixture? It seems that when the lever is forward the game takes it as rich mixture.
A good place to start is posted 2 weeks ago - time= 1:27 and 1:59 show the Spitfire IIa's engine instruments 1:59 RPM = 3,000 Boost = +3 Oil Temp = 90° Coolant = 105°, radiator shutter closed: everything as it should be...
