Oh, another thing: I rarely flew 109s and this may very well be incompetence on my part, but:
I found it very hard to get my 109 E-4/b up to 5km/15000ft altitude. And, when finally arriving up there, it behaved pretty badly, always being on the point of near-stall... Also, I couldn't pick up more than around 320km/h IAS in level flight at 5000m (this might be an 'okay' value for IAS @ 5km, but flight behaviour was bad) - except for some occurrences, probably influenced by wind, where the plane exhibited a pretty powerful downward trim and got to over 450km/h IAS, further complicating the downward trim. It's quite easily resolved by bold elevator input, but still, it's strange. Though I had to trim the elevators pretty far downward for level flight @ 5km in the first place.
Is that the right behaviour?

Edit: I noticed that the automatic Prop pitch seems to be stuck at 8:30. Is this a new or an already know issue?
