As regards the Luftwaffe ammo, sure a 20mm shell should make a nice flash, but whether the MGs should, I cannot tell you.
Not so Fenrir,
The DeWilde was created for just that purpose and was in great demand. Shortage of this ammo was evident in the BOB but not later. When the DeWilde hits metal, it flashes bigtime. RAF pilots preferred this to tracers as the tracers would give warning as they went by the enemy.

What I would like to see is the smoke trail left by "incendiary" bullets which acted similar to tracer paths for the shooter to see.

Default Bug - Engine damage smoke passing through cockpit.
My Hurricane engine was damaged on the ATAG server and I noticed the vapour/smoke trail from the engine streaming through the cockpit at my feet near where the exhaust reflection used to be.

Looking behind, I could see no trail behind me.

Please could someone answer these questions...

Are the black oil leaks back?

Does the flak now have sound?

Have the lights in cockpits being toned down since in this patch?

I have not heard any flak sound either far away or close-in. I fly red with the cockpit open.

Thank you dev team for all your hard work. I haven't commented enough here but that is because I'm flying every night enjoying the hell out of your sim, you have something here that nobody else has and I thank you deeply.

Now my wish list: Dot visibility when closing in on aircraft, LOD's

Can't wait for the sequel and announcements

I have shot up a Hurricane today online and it poured black smoke. It looked like Oil so I let him get away.

Cocpit light OTOH are the same as before. :/
