Smug Question, but a question never the less.

I didnt know that and I only fly sim mode. Infact my plane knowledge in general is very limited but I do know that I like dogfighting in Sim and I try to get the better of who I'm flying against, sometimes it works and soem times (mostly) it doesnt.
Occasionally I figure out that I cant outturn this guy or this other plane climbs way better than mine but seeing as I cant identify what planes the other guys are flying its not that helpful bar one match plus I always assume its my piloting before the abilities of the plane as a good pilot in a crate can always beat me.

In my opinion the great thing about WWII flightsim's its the fact it sparkles the curiosity to read about the tactics and the planes of that era.

It's great when you realize that additional knowledge translates to additional advantage online, and at the same time generates heated arguments on why the flight model is inaccurate on plane X vs plane Y or that the cockpit visibility of plane Z is incorrect.

I agree with FOV. Also it would be kind of boring a Yak-3 always staying below 5,000 and the 109 staying at 10,000.
