Nor, it seems, were they under any obligation to say anything because they knew about some undetermined problem in 1936 but decided to do nothing because it was going to cost money and it was the designer's fault anyway.
First of all, it's been said already that not all the aircraft met the standard.

Secondly, why is it important? What difference does it make if Britain had a standard or not? Who cares? You keep bringing this Did-they/Didn't-they topic up over and over, but it's completely secondary to the purpose of this thread.

This thread is supposed to be about coming up with a good body of evidence so that the developers can add proper handling to the game. Are you saying you don't think players should have to deal with it by careful flying?
