Skoshi Tiger and I have very similar results.
On first run through I started the track, immediately hit pause, started the FPS tracking and I go a minimum of 3. Second time around I let the track load, I waited maybe half a second and then hit pause and started the tracking. On that I got 9.
It's the first 30 seconds where the frame rate drops to a 9. I was at 11 for the first several seconds and then it briefly dropped to 9 before it was back at 11.
I've got a Core i7 870 with 4GB of DDR3 RAM and a GeForce GTS 250 512mb running on IL-2 1946 4.09m stock at 1280x1024 with 4xFSAA and 2x AF. Under normal gaming circumstances I can often have sessions where my FPS minimum is 65 or 80... but this track and circumstance is just brutal. Actually I think it very clearly shows where the limits of the IL-2 engine are considering a wide range of systems are getting similar results.
