More realism in plane models

Then to my point:
I have been playing now for a week and being a WW2 aviation enthusiast, find it a bit dissapointing that the 109 E cockpit, does not resemble the original in the views to the front sides or back, The cockpit had sharp edges not rounded corners at the top window, the armor plate behind the pilot is missing and so on. I'd like to know what prompted the makers to make such an inaccurate model after trying to do everything so HiFi otherwise?
The sound of the Daimler engine sounds more like my mothers sowing machine that a supercharged Messerschmidt.
I appreciate that the slight engine loss of power when dipping the nose with the Rolls Royce Merlin has been included.
But why not make the Emil what it should be? It was the coolest plane ever...

But again great sim guys. it just seems that someone has forced the watering down of the models.

Also, I challenge you to show me an fps difference in any game running through STEAM and without it.. the system resources used on todays systems is so small that it is literally a non factor..

Ok, prepare to get lambasted.. just warning you up front. The 109E3 is modelled properly It did not have Pilot armor and the forward windscreen had rounded top edges as modelled.. As for the engine sound, are you comparing it to what you hear OUTSIDE the aircraft or what the pilot hears?
