Got into some dogfights, wasn't hit, got some awesome kills B) and then my engine died on a REALLY hard low-yoyo trying to kill my target. Out of the yoyo, the engine died, I took it into a dive where it ALMOST started back up... but didn't..... and I couldn't land it in the frozen river :/ ... I don't feel like this is a glitch. This is very powerful engine that can get pushed past its limits.

I dunno dude, i pushed my plane to the limits for over 40 mins nothing happend, then using WEP alot and after 5 mins or so engine stops.
But i also noticed like i said earlyer, WEP can be engaged on flight stick throttle without really boosting the plane but still giving higher pressure into the engine.
