No, I think the E4 is a very welcome addition to the BoB scenario.

there is one, its just a thumbswitch on the throttle
this switch replaced the lever on the panel - if there is a automatic or not.

It's very nice to get new models/variants. I hope the next updates are RAF though. It's a little disheartening to see the opposition get new and improved toys.

Bring 'em on though, I say. We shall never surrender.

If you look at the video Luthier posted in the latest development update you can see the pitch "clock" instrument moving in unison with the throttle changes.

And no lever

The RAF needs some love, too - give us some more planes, too!
The spitfire and hurricane are good in their performance. They can do thing pretty well if FLOWN CORRECTLY like people like wavilon show regularily on the the servers.
I mean they do turn better than the 109 (by a really big amount) heck the spitfire can turn on a dime. The hurricane is EXTREMELY close in speed to the 109. If you raise the performance for either of the two you ruin it completely for the german side. I mean look at the servers that have the Spit IIa... NOONE plays there for a reason. No point in playing german at all on those servers.
I do think we have a pretty good balance between the allied planes and the german ones (well with exception of the dogfighting blenheims and pi** poor performing G50)
So stop whining and learn how to fly them correctly.

And I have never been on a server that offered a Mk II. Spit.

Don't be in such a rush to get to 1944. It's boring and has been done to death.
Amen to that..

Like my girlfriend reminds me,
Let's take our time.. Men always have to go for the glory!! LOL

my opinion... people who said that having differant variant of plane is a waste of time don't deserve to play sim!

Spot on, I really hope that they have included the canopy change it makes a big diffrence to the look of the 109 IMHO.
