This still works.

@set fast off
@set echo on
@set alias on
@set history 20

@alias a alias
@a h history
@a s show

@a on fps START SHOW
@a off fps STOP HIDE

This still requires opening the console to display the frame rate as I read your post. Initially it was a mod who posted adding @fps START SHOW to display the frame rate immediately entering the game w/o having to open the console. The post was 2011 time frame as best I can remember but I haven't been able to find the post (search).

EDIT: Found it. Page 3 of the FAQ stickey, post by 335th GRAthos dated 7/23/2011 (about 5 posts down). Make sure to edit the rcu file IN THE DOCUMENTS IL2 STURMOVIK folder (which is what I didn't do as reason why it didn't work) and NOT the Steamapps\Common\IL2 folder and add @ fps START SHOW which will automatically display the frame rate on game start.
