I thought I made a BEAUTIFUL stern attack on you with Dutch and Ekko strangely flying benignly to either side of you......

You should have heard them chortle when they read your chat message! Geez, this was just after I used the patch YOU so kindly mirrored for us.

In penance I'm eating an entire all-dressed pizza tonight and won't stop 'til I drop -- I feel that badly.

Seriously - sorry mate!

Thank goodness for that, I thought it might have been me! I attacked a trailing Ju88 behind that formation of about 7 of them. What was a Blennie doing imitating a fighter anyway? It has enough problems imitating a bomber!

Red aircraft performance at 17kft and above needs attention.
They are borderline unflyable at those attitudes due to;
1. engine shudder
2. automatically cycling prop pitch

Keeping throttle and propr at 100% (full fine) helps a little, but results in quick temperature gains.

Also, the mixture is pointless... at no altitude does changing the mixture result in any improved performance. leaning the mixture results in engine coughing at all altitudes.

So its looks that FM and engine power settings are still screw up mostly in British fighters

So still nonsense to play these game

Kwaitek,

be more specific !

you have all the figures and data for what should be the airspeed and performance at various altitudes, record your findings it in the new patch again and then compare it to the previous date in the older patch (3 altitude levels, with and without boost etc)

then give some specific numbers in the bug thread (or first discuss it with other users in a separate thread, and then post your conclusions (with data numbers) in the bug thread

that is the only way to make this issue be resolved or improved
