I never saw such flames with my eyes under normal daylight (and I saw a lot of “big iron” flying and big engines starting up from very close distance), exactly as I never saw turning propeller blades that look so evident in many videos.
It’s true that planes flying at night almost invariably had flame dampers, and planes without them usually were not flown in combat at night. Day fighters where flown at dawn or dusk, but at which light intensity should the flame effect disappear or appear?
Mi feeling remain that flames effect always on is not enhancing realism, even if it’s definitely a cool effect.
Anyway, this is my personal opinion. I stated it clearly enough, I think, and this is my last comment on this matter.

Its very much like TheGrunch said. Plus there are many many aspects in game, that can be more important than increasing quality of effects. Not every aspects must be considered equaly, onlybecause of 'it had been'.
i.e. it was also in reality, that pilots had to climb into their planes before they could get off, something that is not (or very hardly) possible with the game.

The game is about airwar and thats what is most important. I personally prefer gameplay improvements over atmosphere improvements. If we had a huge team with some bored members, we could adress such easily, but it isn't that case.

What is needed to run the 4.10?
A plain vanilla IL2 1946 dvd install? (just found it in one of my moving boxes)

Will we still have to keep the dvd in for playing? My dvd is spinning insanely loud and I would like to keep it disconnected as much as possible.

Thanks for waking this old sim up again!

You'll want to have 4.08m and 4.09m patches first. Those and the IL-2 1946 original install.
