I realize that endless hours have been spent on creating this patch and for the most part it's pretty cool.
What you guys have to realize is that those of us who fly the Navy planes exclusively, we have noticed a huge difference. And there is nothing wrong with stating the "feel" of a plane isn't quite right. We aren't all modders or airplane mechanics. Not to mention some of us have families and careers so we don't have time to test out the differences between patches.
Besides I think no matter what evidence is presented here, DT will shoot it down. I've seen declassified documents which matched my so-called fan base site stats and they have been met with cynical skepticism.
Further more DT has not provided any data or reasoning as to why the Corsair has been remodelled.
I have found this whole discussion to be highly biased and unprofessional.

Shaker I suggest you read this thread. Sawyer provided his test data and a DT member (Me) went and retested in direct response to his test data. In general the test numbers agreed well with the various data presented in the links to WWII aircraft performance sight. You will also see that in one test Sawyer forget to use WEP and consequently got a figure dramatically lower than "Book" figures.... and asked what had we done to the FM. Alas flying the test correctly resulted in reasonable values !
You imply there has been deliberate bias and imply that DT have "nerfed" the F4. I don't see any specific data from YOU to prove YOUR argument. The majority of respondents to this thread have argued their point in a mature manner and provided references to support their argument.
You say in your post:
"The Corsair took a huge performance hit and we haven't even gotten to the Hellcat yet. "
How so ? What exactly do YOU mean by a "huge" performance hit ?? Give us a specific example and a documented proof that in game its wrong.
DT listen and investigate legitimate well reasoned arguments (this thread alone is proof of this). Right now within DT there is considerable discussion and work going on with respect Carrier Take off performance in Il2 in general.
One liner cheap shots don't do anyone any good.
