Well done Oleg,

Looking forward to a big christmas present from you.

Really nice detail, quality. Thank you.

I think Oleg is just having a little joke at the expense of the nit pickers.

No WW2 aircraft that I have ever seen fly, and I've seen a lot of them, ever had visible exhaust flames while in flight in daylight.

Not one, ever.

Oleg is an engineer and pilot, and he knows this as well.

Or, this is just an NKVD psy-ops mission to keep the competition distracted.

LOL, you may have a point there ElAurens.

I believe that this over exaggerated effects have been posted for a different reason - to show the effects what different mixture/throttle/RPM/etc. has on the exhaust. I agree, with a proper mixture setting their visibility in broad daylight should be minimum/non existent - unless when starting an engine (as shown on various videos - well documented). And this can be fine tuned after the process in the engine/cylinder has been properly modeled into the game.
