Spit IIA Speed in game test

[Osprey]

And this is the 'best' fighter in the RAF too.

I too noticed the FTH was way lower than IRL for all types. I also find that the climb rate are particularly inaccurate, once you get over 16kft you'll struggle for 500fpm in the Hurricane. In the Spitfire I find it ironic that it is supposed to outperform the 109 @ 6000m now (20kft) BUT the climb rate above 16kft is so bad that getting there takes forever. I don't think it's an optimum altitude for the Spitfire in game anyway, it's just that the 109 fails by even more @ that alt.

It beggars belief that a company that set out to build a combat flight sim has no idea about the performance and operation of the aircraft they are supposed to be simulating, and appears to have no database of data of their own on which to model it all, instead relying on being shouted at by their own customers. To cap it all there is a databse of bugs, formally raised and set up by dedicated customers which they do know about, but I have little faith that they've paid any attention to.

I run a squadron of about 30+ pilots, we get barely any even turning up now. What do I do?
