A lot of guys talked about a lot of tricks in different patches for the Bf109 and other aircraft since IL2 came out, but those guys were the ones who placed too much importance in dueling servers or turning and burning on the deck.
Tricks were never a substitute for smart flying, and all the guys who tried playing with prop-pitch and trim during a fight just ended up having more to do and worry about, and they took a chance on ruining their engines. In FB patch 1.21 you could blow your engine in .5 seconds switching it to manual at the wrong speed and pitch! Also the engine in the later 109G could be ruined just by switching on the MW50 with the throttle over 0%.

When everyone else was flying the 109G6a/s and variants with WEP, I switched to and stuck with the 109G2 because I saw it was fast enough and I did not have to worry about ruining the engine on it, very simple to fly.

I always made things as simple and easy as possible with the controls while flying the sim, so in combat I never had to think, just act. Maybe that is the best "trick" of all?
