If you do not call this feature " inconsistency", it s, at least, user unfriendly, indicating that the programmer does not care of users.

I'm sorry, but I disagree with your point of view.
It is clearly stated in the manual that PAIR and LINE work as off runway take-off. Off runway take-off has been in Il2 for ages and it works exactly the same as before with added bonus to place the starting planes in pairs or line. It will also not automatically snap your starting position to the runway if you are close by.
If anything, extra care was taken not to change the previous mechanics to make it easier for the mission builder.

This also answers spdr109 problems. No change there. Mission builder has to take care of placing the flights, so they don't collide.

As a mission builder I would say that the programmer did not made it easier, but much worse.
I do not like if anybode else says what is better for me.

Moon phase bug: dark side faces the Sun, at least a few times on Leningrad winter.
(Also, a rotating starfield instead of static would be nice... )

Its a flight simd and not a space sim, you wouldn even notice if the stars are rotating or not

My apologies if I'm missing something obvious with the Patch, ( which incidently I am enjoying greatly ) but I don't have playable B17s B24s and some Russian heavy bombers.

Again and again, end of the record of the QMB Scramble mission on Bessarabia map does not correspond what was flown in the mission. Have 4.11 +Hotfix, nothing else.

Yep, I have the same problem. When I watch tracks with automatic view control they play just fine, but if I use manual view control and watch the tracks from outside the aircraft I was flying then anything can happen.

I have seen this before in years past when new patches came out. I remember in the original IL2 the training tracks quit working and the aircraft in them would crash, sort of amusing to watch while the commentary kept going on about what was supposed to be happening.

And I have seen it in other patches too. Seems like sometimes they change the flight models of the aircraft but the simulation has not been notified of it so it tries to fly them according to the way they flew in the last patch and it does not work out. My ideas might be simplistic and even wrong, but it is an actual problem in some patches whatever the reason for it....
