I like this bit
"The comparable 5 minute engine limitations were; 1.30 ata/2400 rpm for the Me 109 E-1, 3 and 4, and +12 lbs/3000 rpm for the Spitfire Mk I"
Try 12lbs @ 3000rpm in the Spit and see if you can last 5 seconds let alone 5 minutes
It's an important read though, for all who are interested in this sim being a sim.
