IMHO another thing that needs to be looked into is best climb speed. AFAIK the best speed for climb for the 109E in the sim is 270-280 kph IAS. This would be correct for the 109G, but the E's best climb rate was at 250 kph IAS.

This might sound as a small thing, but it seriously effect the climb curve. The FM calculates climb via a generic formula, where Vi=best climb is the peak and Vi= max level speed is 0. Shifting Vi=best climb to higher speed will thus reduce low speed (steep) climb performance and too low Vi= max level speed will reduce high speed climb, zoom etc.

This can and does effect tactics such as climbing turns, using different climb angles etc.
