I posted over 20 days ago speed tests for the Mk IIa in CoD that showed it matches a +12 boost Spitfire. I even asked you directly if you had tested it yourself in the sim, I ask once again, have you tested it yourself in CoD? The chart you posted shows 290 for SL top speed for a +9 lb boost Mk IIa, the Mk IIa in CoD gets 315 at SL.

Here, once again is the Mk IIa Spitfire CoD speeds compared to real Spitfire speeds.



As can be seen the Mk IIa speeds are spot on when compared to a +12 lbs boost Spitfire Mk Ia. The speeds are around 20-25mph faster than the 9 Lbs boost Mk II a speeds which would put them about right for 12 lbs boost. Also at the full throttle height of around 18,000 ft the boost there should be no speed difference between 9 lbs or 12 lbs boost.

The Mk IIa in CoD (at least in speed for altitude) is definately a 12 lbs boost version. The guage in CoD is broken.
