Complex engine manamgent is not about starting the engine. It's about correct boost presure, correct rpm, correct limitations for both, correct throttle (for example a variable datum type boost control used on Merlin III vs. the more simple boost control in Merlin II), pitch handling and W.E.P. handling. Also overheating.

The flight model is not limited the stick control, your left hand on the throttle/pitch is also a important factor in the flight model.

Understood and agreed....the start up, would have been a bonus for some of us off liners

Let's not forget fuel management. Selectable fueltanks with consequences to the FM would be great.

And for the "complex" startup procedure just look at Skockwaves BoBII. You just need to press no more than 5 switches ( 2 x magnetos, fuel cutoff, primer pump and starter switch) which takes about 10 seconds, but it greatly enhances the immersion.

I do not think there is any question that things you are talking about will be implemented in SoW.

S!

Sure they will be modeled, the question is only to which degree they are authentic

In Il-2:1946 there is no overboosting damage, no damage from flying to long at to high rpm and boost presure, no undercooling of the engine at high alt and so on.

And what about overcooling ???? This can happen in low power setting descent.....

Wo-Ho! You can freeze your engine at low RPM and high altitude. It is modeled since FB!
I wouldn't be surprised if there was some damage from flying at high RPM too long (but it might be minor enough that you wouldn't notice)

if you fly at high rpms too long your engine starts to overheat. three guesses as to what happens next.

It depends from your settings. In complex engine settings you have overboost damage, overheating with motor death, freezing at high alts etc.

I would be curious... how is netlag being addressed?
