They downgraded it to below the performance of an 87 octane fueled Spit tested at Boscombe Down in March 1940. Data for this aircraft only exists from 10,000ft up. This is N3171.

No, I'm not going to produce evidence, because all of these arguments are immaterial when we consider that no aircraft in the game can achieve its true operational ceiling. If this is unachievable within the bounds of the current game engine, any arguments about performance at any altitude are so much hot air. Whoever you are, and whoever you might think you want to be. How do the FMs compare @ 30,000ft?

When the designers of this so called simulator finally get around to modelling the atmosphere necessary to allow any aircraft modelled to perform as it should at any altitude, I'll start to take notice, but until then, I'm sorry but you're all talking faeces.
