What? Isn't this supposed to be a WWII sim?

Why do we need this when there's perfectly good examples flying today.

To be devil's advocate, do they use exactly the same fuel, etc? I can see what you're saying, a mark 1 spit from today is better to compare to than a seafire, but it's hard to find suitable videos.
Just my thought. Personally I think it's best to average out the effects seen in some videos, and then base this strongly around historical references. The pilots from the time would have had a pretty good idea themselves, and many have documented the effect

Basically all internal combustion engines are the same in the compression chamber. As far as any visible flames coming from the exhaust stack. A properly burnt mixture may not show any flame at the stack, because the fuel was burned up already during the compression power stroke firing. A cold engine on the other hand, would be showing colored flames during the exhaust stroke for a bit...kind of cool feature, but I would prefer it only on the start up in game.

Right now I´m just thinking why doesn´t Oleg call Duxford and tells them he the master blaster that will get more visitors to Duxfords Flying Legends all he needs from them is the different colours of of different planetypes with the engine in different conditions and various lights.

Better then us guessing around if this is the right fuel/footage/idea/whatever.

Woo hoo.. yet another update thread ends in name calling..

Too many people who think that opinion and fact are the same thing.

Come on girls, play nice. I have a handkerchief if anyone needs to dry thier eyes.

Regardless of what mark,make and model, BoB is the first of a line of sims which will incorporate different types and locations.
Any useful info is good for the future as well as today.
