In this game fuel is loaded into rear tank first and the handling shows it as it would in real life. This should be changed to make this airplane handle like it would if properly loaded.
This is my first post since this game came out.

IL2 is AFAIK incapable of shifting CoG. And as this was asked for before at least n-times and has not been changed since, I would assume its not easily fixable.

That aside, Mustang handles quite okay when not selecting full fuel load and has still enough left to stay in the fight for quite some time. And then it behaves okay, and boy it is fast. If it only were armed with Hispanos...
