No, Russians just fly better in average (and I am not one of them btw).
You will be interested to learn a story of the greatest IL-2 cheater of all times =FB=vik-s and his friend =FB=Storm

They were the worst cheaters known by community for 3 years after Il-2 launched. No one of the western community doubted that they cheat. Then they came to the
Lowland TigerMeet 2003 LAN European Championship in the Netherlands and won it becoming official European champions.
If you have as long winters as we do here in Russia and nothing to do outside for most part of the year and no money to go to a pub or cinema you would spend as much time flying as many Russian guys do (all their off-work time basically).
If you loved WWII aviation as much as Russians do some of you would have created IL-2 series, not Oleg Maddox (most successful game studios are located in the west, but not avia-sim ones, aren't they?)
Use your brain to think why no one but Russian community organized this championship (2nd time already)
http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showthread.php?t=33946 (won by none-russian btw) When you win the next one, you are allowed to call them cheaters. They will take it as a compliment btw.
Show a video proof from ATAG (just fly behind and film the guys you mean) or fhut up and stop being a nazi. This stinks. If you can not shoot down 5 noobs in 5 minutes it does not mean no one can

...Here is a proof that cheaters exist for you.
