Do you have in mind for the near future adding new brit and german bombers to be complementary whit the radar feature ?
And there“s one of you working or planning to work in new maps?
We are thinking about all of the things you mentioned.

Good examples of things that leap out are:

1) Spitfire energy retention in tight turns
2) The relative performance of the 109G2 vs the 109G6
3) The relative performance of the A8 vs the A6, A5, and especially the A5-1.65

...so I hope you share my interest in those issues. Wishing you all the best and look forward to seeing your work.
Like I said in my previous post, we have contacts with RL pilots and Oleg's FM tester (former fighter pilot) is helping us. We are not afraid to change things but we need solid proof before we do anything.

Good example is Spit E retention, I'm yet to see any proof that something is wrong with it, in fact when I compared it with NACA test of Spit ( TBH we don't have that variant in game but I used closest one we have) I was losing more E than in RL test so I doubt that something is very wrong with Spit but I might be wrong.

For example, you are flying a FW-190 or a Bf-109 and one-two 50 cals bullets hitting your right wing. You can see only one or two black dots (not hole) but they are effecting too much on turnings. And also you can not fly fast anymore. And of course if you have a hole on your German fighters wing it means you already dead. It is same flying a Zero or any unarmored Japan planes. Only one difference is German fighter pilot dying a few seconds later, thats all.
There is no special code for Axis aircraft in game, what happens to Axis planes happen to Allies too. keep in mind that graphics doesn't show exact damage and few holes in wing could represent much serious damage than you think.

I own a microsoft Sidewinder FFB2 joy. There will be the availability to set up custom feed back settings like i can do with ROF sim ?

We didn't plan that but we might take a look, if it is easy enough we might do something about it but this will not be very high on our priority list.

All the work you are doing seems good and worthwhile, however the idea of new objectives in mission building and the gameplay is fantastic
No Triggers in 4.09, 4.09 is basically done and only some minor things have to be checked before release.

Triggers will be released in later patch together with other changes to AI, we are making very big changes there and it is not possible to release some parts separately when they full functionality depend on many other things.
