Good try, but not realistic...

[SEE]

Try adjusting the sensitivity down (about 40% works for me). Rarely go into a spin in Sim mode unless taken damage or made a real horses ass of it....

This looks scary. Hahaha.

I'll stick to skydiving instead.

Here in Canada we are taught stall recognition and spin recovery. Stall recognition in order to avoid a stall and spin recovery just in case... I think it's really stupid not to teach spin recovery. Also, spins are honestly so fun, it would have been lame to not have done them.

War Emergency Power is very real, and definately should be included in the game....and if your really after realism maybe you should just try this:

Ahh bugger it i cant find the video. Theres this place in pricksville USA that lets you take planes up in the air and using laser technology and stuff lets you simulate real dogfights, looks pretty cool, kinda like an aerial game of laser tag.

Something I've noticed, when watching gun camera footage, the plane firing seems remarkably stable, not yawing wildly back and forth with the slightest rudder input. So to the OP, as a pilot, would a plane behave like they do in the game? I would love it if we could adjust rudder sensitivity as well, it might help. As it stands, if you try to use your rudder to tweak your aim a bit, you start to yaw like crazy. Some planes are worse than others.

I can imagine the fighters would experience a large effect from rudder input, but the pedals have way more resistance then the joystick, making it easier to make small adjustments. This also meant a pretty big force was required for full rudder input.

Actually, I can understand what your saying. Pretty much all those old planes have a huge rudder and usually the entire thing moves. Not only that but the rudder moves pretty far on those planes. This will make the rudder very sensitive. At my flight school we have 2 citabria's. I have personally not flown it but all my friends who went from the cessna 172 to the citabria say that the rudder is extremely sensitive. So yes, this is realistic but I can see how it would be frustrating from a gamers perspective.
