May I suggest the following as examples

BBC and Jimmy Saville

As for the volume of the noise coming from Fw 190 fans over the years, I think that says more about them than the quality of their "facts"

Sadly, too many American aircraft enthusiasts are only interested in the post-D-Day aircraft like the P-51D.

Any hoo, I've made my point, my beloved P-47 razorback isn't going to get changed by TD.

Lastly, I would like to thank you IceFire for your civilised responses, you are a gentleman Sir. ~S!

It's a great airplane.

I have been fortunate enough in my life to have seen 3 Jugs fly. One was in a CAF airshow in Texas and made a very close to full power low pass and the other two were at an airshow in Indiana. They did some low passes but they were far from wide open. It was quite awesome.

Haven't been lucky enough to see one yet... One day I will!

Accusing a developement team of being biased, is a very unpolite approach.
TD got tons of work to do, and with their propper schedule.
Even on the absurd discusion about the 190's bar, peopleatempted to show proof on original planes photos.
Pick a photo of a P47 cocckpit and superpose it with the one in game and show us the truth.
Not meaning that the actual solution is right, but that the proposed one is better.
I will prefer TD to alocate time on the Pz 11. It is far worst than the P47, and it is the only official polish plane.

That low pass sounded just like you imagine that it would. It was at Hondo, Texas. He came over about a thousand feet, went out about two miles, turned and lined up with the runway, hopped a line of trees at the end of the runway and came screaming down the centerline. It was either an N or an M, I don't recall which it was. It's been a long time ago.

That does sound glorious! If it sounds anything like a F4U Corsair doing something sort of similar ... then it will be spectacular.

Is this where I throw a cat amongst the pigeons and say I'd love to have a P-43 Lancer (both USAAF and RAAF) and a P-35?

At 2.06 you can see that the supercharger doors are open a bit.
It means that the intercooler is warm so the supercharger is in use on this p-47.

It's a turbosupercharger so... if the supercharger is in use does that mean by necessity that the turbo is also working?
