I think Ramstein was talking about two different things. The P-40 (and the P-47 as well) were well known for being run above their rated boost-pressures due to the confidence of pilots and ground-crews in the engines.

Default VASI function?

I think what U guys are doing is truly awesome I love this game and really thought that 409m was going to be the last patch I just have a small request. Would it be possible to make the"Visual Approach Slope Indicator" or VASI functional on the Japanese Carriers and maybe install one on the American Carriers?? It would sure open up some time Lines for my missions

Thanks I hope it isn’t to late for this request

Tuph, do you have details of VASI's equipping US and or Japanese carriers ?

Are you referring to the Mirror Landing system of modern times on carriers ?

The VASI on land airfields and the Mirror Landing system on carriers are post war developments.
