Bug in mixture setting or not?

Yes - the onscreen display slider is correct, so up is rich and down is lean for all aircraft.


The mixture lever in Spitfire cockpits is bugged - wrongly showing fully forward as rich instead of fully back towards the pilot.

(haven't tried the Hurricane personally, so don't know if it's same)

In the Hurricane it's towards the pilot for rich and weak forwards. However, when it's on weak it is actually showing as rich on the mini display.

So the conclusion. Working from the cockpits in full real setting (my personal preferred way) you'll have to watch the text because of the bugged handles for setting, just using mapped keystrokes it's ok and you don't have to bother about it (with a wrong mixture the engine will protest anyway). The handles aren't the only issues in the pits.
