Red planes rad 50, prop back to about 80%, and control your water temp from then on in with boost. Which is exactly what i do in 4.11 anyway

The CEM is no more difficult in CLOD than 4.11 and 4.11 mod packs imo, only difference is you get a bit of text telling you you've damaged so and so rather than no message, yawn........

+ in il2 you don't have disappearing contacts and have proper aa, so you don't feel you playing a game from the 90's.

truthfully, the only thing i prefer about CLOD is the cockpits and the sky/horizon, otherwise, its very disappointing, especially the CEM, which no more follows plane handbooks than il2.

tis nice for screenshots though.

You make some good points...I'm usually in a E3 and so that is my workload. I do use flaps a lot and rear trim and of course the pitch/throttle, just seems more of a challenge than 1946 for me.
