Can you provide graphs with lets say 30% fuel in the Mustang and the same equivalent for 190 Dora? Something that would depict a typical online scenario (my presumption here is based on your comment that it gives them the same endurance, and that 30% fuel in Dora would be enough - it has been even longer when I last time took one up to virtual skies and I am away from my PC right now to test if it would).

Correct. If it even models CoG shift / change based on the fuel load, it is very primitive. That is the info I have. In reality, Mustangs never operated in combat with center fuel tank full - that one was drained first as it seriously impacted its CoG and performance. We have it draining last in the game.

Speaking of, I'd love to have the ability to manually switch between different tanks during flight. Especially when flying bombers like I do nowadays (i.e. B-25 is notorious for losing fuel rapidly if you get a ruptured tank).
