IMHO, CloD does this better than any game before it.

I agree, but the POH limits should be modelled correctly. I can see they can't model everything and the engine damage is simplified (and overaggresive for the gaming reasons) and I have no problem with that. Even though the relative performance now seems to be much better than even before and maybe the boost gauges showing incorrect values are purely cosmetic issue. This is still subject to change and I am not about to do any proper testing just yet, but I would say that most of the RAF flyers welcome the current beta. All it needs now is fixing the instruments (if that's really the issue) so correct figures are being shown, fixing the incosnistencies within RAF fighter mixture control including the necessity to go Auto Lean in order to be able to use +12lbs. at 3000rpm. And include similar limitation for DB 601 Notleistung so people won't abuse it like I do.

Osprey - Ernst seems to be just a frustrated LW pilot that was outflown by some Spitfire pilot, there is nothing wrong with that. His post is interesting and I understand what bothers him (I don't like whining either), but he is obviously wrong in his assumptions.
