.
The Spitfire MKI in the game can only get to 25500 ft and the MKIIa to 27700 ft this is not very much more but!

Mixture mechanisation with regards the Throttle mixture interlink (in the Spits) was fixed in this patch. So its correct that pulling the the throttle back will also pull the mixture lever back as well. Back should be AUTO RICH, Forward should be AUTO LEAN.

Other than Max range flying there really should be any reason why you would want to to be in AUTO LEAN.

This is still being looked at by the DEVS.

EDIT: Yes Typo in my positions corrected in the Post and underlined.

AUTO LEAN is required in order to apply full throttle, otherwise the engine clonks and splutters. That is a bug of course.

Yes agreed and also with the devs.

Good form macro. Just took one up and had fun with three 109s and a 110 on the deck near Hawkinge (of course!) If you vary between cruise/dive and steep climb the two-stage is quite usable.

Oh, and mixture forward = go faster. That is the extent of my technical prowess.
