Once it slowed down to 800km/hr I pulled back on the stick as hard as I could to see what would happened and that did not present any problems either except for a bit of a blackout. The plane made a few noises but no parts actually came off.

Now of course I fly only the official version of IL2, so I can not comment on how any of the various hacks/mods various people and their wet dreams have dumped onto the community......
I've done it a couple of times and then not again for ages... How many times did you try? I also only fly stock.

BTW: You've attributed that quote to me which is incorrect.
