a.) Never heard of it, and
b.) I definitely don't want this feature in the game.

The Macchi info is irrelevant, in what situation do have less than 1000rpm?
On the ground or you have a stalled engine.
In the latter situation you don't need the prop anymore...

Spit: This would kill instant action on full real servers - imagine you have to fly around for 15min till you can pop your first round.
That would be so AWSOME!

No.

Well, it's not like I cared, because I never fly red, but anyway

Why, don't you spend at least 15 minute to gain altitude after your takeoff?

15min?

I'm fine with 4.500, takes what, ~8min?

What the heck are you doing up there anyway?
You cant dive much more than 2000min because of the speed build-up.
Sure, you could brake, but then; why go up so hight in the first place?

BTT:

I just downloaded all German Fighter Manuals of the 109/190 and could NOT find similar restrictions, at least not for an airplane while in air.

Maybe to be safe from the p51/p47 above your head? Of course that depends by the planeset but you know.. sometimes you can be bounced by Hurricanes while you are at 5km.

BTW 15min can be the time needed to climb at altitude and reach the hot zone.

No.
Well, stupid things as taking off from runway also kills instant action. Maybe it should not be in "full real" servers too?

No need to be insulting, xilon!
But i agree, "full real" and instant action don't go well together!
To be a good fighter pilot one has to manage his workload like engine management, cooling management, hydraulic pressure, pneumatic pressure, fuel management, oxygen management,
AND
have situational awareness, fly the plane to get tactical advantage, know the opponent.
and much more.
anything else is arcade!!!

I think il2 has something like ages 7+ on the box and I bet sow will too, so you can argue until you are blue in the face about arcade, until you are shot down by a super brat
