The radiator drag point is curious. How did you find it out? BTW I am very sorry to hear that since Il-2 also did a very poor job at modelling radiator drag/cooling effiency with different flap settings. I was hoping COD would be an improvement over it.

In the course of these climbs it was also discovered that both the Spitfire and Hurricane VSI's were overreading to the tune of 800fpm for the Hurricane and 1000fpm for the Spitfires. This determined by Alt versus elapsed time.... so dont rely on the VSI's at present to give you a true indication of climb rate. Altitude versus time is the only true measure.

Seriously? How can even the VSI be faulty? Is there some kind of instrument error margin modelled, and this got bugged? Because otherwise I'd suppose its a simple Z axis change readout for the engine..
