Not sure if this has been posted allready?

Not sure if this is a ground physics bug or an aircraft bug.. But basically the wind is causing the planes to spin while sitting on the ground.. And by ground I mean grass field, not cement runway. It is most notable in the Spitfire..

And it happens at very low wind speeds, much lower (more than half) than the min speed that warnings would be sent out to local air fields in the real world.

That being a pilots's 'perception' of what is going on can be very different from what is 'actually' going on.
