I am primarily an off-line flyer, and don't really care about one side having an edge over another. I fly almost exclusively "red", preferring Hurricanes rather than Spitfires. I am
extremely pleased with the "new" 'Tilly orifice'! Thank you TD for making the game more immersive!
From a purely game enjoyment-POW, I think neutral trim for all planes (not just Spitfires) should be set to combat speed. When you are cruising around at economy setting, you have all the time in the world to fiddle with the trim-knob. When in a fight you have more than enough with keeping an eye on temperatures, superchargers and stalls, not to mention trying not to get shot down. Going straight and level for a few seconds to adjust your trim is fairly low on the priority-list.
I have no idea how trim was adjusted in real life. I suppose a pilot could always ask the mechanics to adjust it to his personal liking. I would therefore like to ask TD if they would consider changing the trim setting so that "neutral" trim is close to maximal cruise speed rather than to maximal fuel economy cruise speed in the upcoming 4.11 patch. Would that be possible without upsetting some other aspect of the game code?
