Of course not. The two models currently in the game are vastly different to eachother in terms of flight characteristics. The Spitfire is already twitchier than the Hurricane, but more agile. It's already more difficult to keep guns on target with the Spit than with the Hurricane. The pre-stall buffet in tight turns so famous in the Spit is there already and is excellently reproduced in a force-feedback joystick.

With engine temperature effects off, the Spit is (to quote Bob Doe) 'like having wings on your back'. The Hurricane, with engine temperature effects off (again to quote Bob Doe), is 'like a brick shithouse'. Solid, steady, sluggish compared to the nimble Spit. The differences are already there. but of course pilot's anecdotes are inadmissable according to your own philosophy, whether mine or Bob Doe's.

The Engine power and therefore airspeed issues with a particular game setting are also there with all aircraft tested so far. Except for the Bf109 tested by one person, which demonstrated no power or airspeed loss with either of these game settings.

So please, unless you are prepared to test this specific issue for yourself, with whichever aircraft you'd like, stop quoting my responses in an attempt to argue issues which have been argued before.

My thanks.
