Strange.. Granted it does take awhile to load after you click on the 'Il-2 CoD' tab.. So give it a few min before clicking on it again.

It is almost certainly the case at other altitudes too although 1,000 and 2,000ft were ok, returning 270 and 273mph Z_TAS after about 5 mins, BCO override giving 302 and 309mph. btw It was only carrying 65% fuel/5845lbs, a little under N3171 trials at 6050lbs (my error left over from the Hurricane tests).

We were experiencing similar engine problems on ATAG last night at various altitudes and power settings.
Strange.. Might have something to do with the way I did the test, as I pointed out to Banks, I messed up and need to re-do this test

I think you and others will find it very handy when doing top speed per altitude tests.. In that I put ~10 miles worth of 'FLASHING RING' at each of the test altitudes, which in turn makes it a lot easier to maintain the altitude, in that you get a 'visual' feedback and basically all you have to do is fly through the FLASHING RINGS

Yup! That is why I use it over the others!

That being a pilots's 'perception' of what is going on can be very different from what is 'actually' going on.
