That aside, Mustang handles quite okay when not selecting full fuel load and has still enough left to stay in the fight for quite some time. And then it behaves okay, and boy it is fast. If it only were armed with Hispanos...

Yep! We all have to remember that the fuel gauge isn't real and it doesn't represent fuel tanks that are full or empty individually. Just one big tank really.

A Mustang Mark IA with the four 20mm Hispano cannons would be a nice addition (and a P-51A and a A-36 Apache ).

Also, with one or two other aircraft (don't remember which), part of the main wheel clips through the upper surface of the wing after the gear is fully retracted.

Didn't know that about the Hurri's and FW's gear mechanism, though...

On the FW190 that's not a bug. It was an indicator that the wheels were up.
It's a small rod, that shows that wheels are efectively down/up.
There is an anecdote about one of this rods being jammed, and the pilot arriving to wrong conclusions not knowing of this plane problem and executing a belly landing believing that his gear was still up.

Actually it's a nice detail.

- When using the Go-229, the pilot model's head tilts way too much up and down. It seems that the X and Y axis are reversed - if you look up/down in the cockpit, the pilot external model looks slightly left/right. When you look all the way left and right, the pilot head tilts very, very unnaturally!

- Another .ntrk recording bug: if you select a B-239 as an opponent in the QMB, set map as Normandy1 and look at the B-239, it sports an unpainted, metallic skin. However, if you record this as a .ntrk and watch it, it has the default FAF brownish/green paintscheme instead. This bug appears at least when the B-239 is Finnish, and it doesn't seem to appear on the Crimea map.

The rear gunner of the B-29 gets decapitated when he is killed.

Hmm... ISIS operated flak?

THAT will mess with the ESRB rating! At least if it's intentional. . . :O
