Absolutely right - and I'd also add that the same goes for RPM values too. For most people I fly with, the prop pitch control serves no purpose at all, because they take off with 100% and leave it there for the whole flight.

Maybe it would be good to start thinking about modelling the engine controls and, most importantly, limitations correctly. However, it is my feeling that the overheat in the game is an artificial construct, i.e. the Il-2 engine does not support separate CHT, EGT, TIT etc values...
