I am certainly finding landing the 109 easier than in IL21946 - actually managed to land one in The Mall so I could pay my respects to the King at Buck House.

T/O requires lots of right rudder and a forward stick push from neutral trim, which is just as the RL accounts I have seen would suggest.

In IL2 the most difficult landings were the grass strips on the older design maps as these were very narrow making lining up harder: the newer maps (eg Slovakia) had open grass airfields which were much easier. The cut grass strip area in the CoD maps seems to be a little wider.

Also agree about the grapics quality issue - much easier to estimate height.

I suspect the gear is too strong though.

I did manage to damage my landing gear several times, even punched my tires.

The new physics and the landing gear model is a lot better, and the grip of differents surfaces has improved alot too, that is more realistic now.

In IL-2 1946 is just wrong, its not full modeled :

The lack of the mentioned improvements, and the crazy and unrealistic bouncing, makes the landings frustrating, impossible to do outside of landing tracks, very unreal for a plane with a landing gear of a WWII.

I like how is in ClOD, has improved a lot, very satisfactory now.
