Listening to our grandfathers we have bold statement on warbirds' performance that can't be trusted since it's physically impossible.
Because of this I think that the only way to have real performance is by these softwares: probably not 100% accurate but physical science don't lie.

what kinda parameters you would work on then? I'm intrigued by it.

Of course, my hands are tied. I test the game 20 minutes after every patch and I've to say that I'm really happy with the progress. Not joking. The planes' performance are not a priority by now. Nor mine nor should be of the developers

yeah let's give em some time, it's gonna be great Im sure
I personally can't wait for the Mediterranean expansion!

I'm not an engineer but I read the guys writing about calculating propeller efficency by software. So it's like working on the designs.

For the inside components' performance instead we still need historical data (engine, radiators ect are different things).

So we should complain about Overheat times, Guns' efficency ect, but not about things like max speed, climbing rate, acceleration ect.
