I'm sorry, but unlike you I'm not an armchair expert..

One thing is flying the formations like you see in the videos you posted, another is the video of the IL-2 aerobatics. Since you're an expert I'm sure that you've heard of concepts like propwash and turbulence, which aren't modelled in IL-2 (or better, they're in the code but not activated) and are massive on planes like the P-51.
A formation takeoff with P-51s like that of the IL-2 video is impossible to achieve, it's only stuff for jets. Let me show you what can happen in formation landings with taildraggers of that calibre..

Little arrogant, self-proclaimed experts like you should always check who they're measuring with before making comments on stuff they obviously don't know much about, if anything to avoid being humiliated with facts. Unbelievable..
