I hope not but I can see this going down the same route some players tried to push the old IL2: wanting the latest greatest versions rather than what was typical at the time.

I find most things apart from taxiing easier on the K4. The 190 in comparison, for me at least is much harder to take off in and land and seems far less stable in flight.

This is still using figures which compare the right aircraft with the wrong one. The A model referenced is an A4, without spares and tested over and over again by the British first, it's not even indicative of a factory fresh model with perfect maintenance.

Other than the this talks about the 190A in general terms (it's like saying in general Spitfire, when the Mk1 is completely different to the XIV), you have to look at this in greater context. If I remember rightly the 190 used in that test was a used and slightly abused (tested by the British for some time) A4 that was accidentally landed in the UK. The P51B/C/D in reality faced the A6 initially and then A8s and occasionally D9s. It's highly unlikely a P51 ever encountered an A3 or A4 in combat other than RAF ones which flew over to Norway where the groups there had the older aircraft. Sources for WW2 fighter performance is a bit of a dark place when it comes to captured aircraft - sometimes the fuel was wrong, the aircraft was old and lacked spare parts or in one case of a D9 that ended up in the US, it had the wrong wings attached to it. It's best to look at all sources before drawing conclusions. I would suggest reading Johannes Steinhoff's "The Final Hours". He paints a very vivid picture about the state of the Luftwaffe in 1944/45. In his opinion at least - and it's quite a well respected one - it was nearly impossible to compare combat performance between aircraft anyway after 1943 because of the imbalance of numbers.

Tornado IDS/GR1/GR4, ECR and ADV would be fantastic. So much variation available on a single aircraft. Granted the ADV would be a slightly different model. Blackburn Buccaneer. To fight Mig21s and partner up with the VEAO Lightning when it comes out. Harrier FA2 or GR9

+1 Series 1 or 2 Tempest would be most welcome. Maybe VEAO will do it, since they're doing the typhoon and seafury. It would be logical to do the one in between.

Thanks. I think the true benefit will be in a gun fight where quick trimming will make life easier.

Yeah, I thought it might be that or alternatively similar to the system on the A10's gun trigger first stage which stabilises the aircraft prior to the second stage.

I meant the new trim button, trim to stick or something like that. An option that previously wasn't available on the old su27.

I'm also curious about how this is meant to work.

This was the old stock campaign, I think there is only this one. I got stuck on mission 2 as well, did it about 5 times before it would complete.

Yeah, he also set the standard for giving out free content. For which I'll be forever grateful for.

Perhaps a Taiwan map would be appropriate.

No one else got the joke :(

I'm enjoying this new flight model. Although it's a little tricky, aerobatics always seem on a knife edge between pulling of a tight maneuver or ending up in a stall or inverted flat spin. Needs allot of trim adjustment through the speed range. It feels like a prop fighter in that respect. It really chews through fuel with afterburner on.

First post...fix worked for me. Although the two landing training missions have several bugs with them. The first one doesn't trigger properly at way point 2 and the difficult landing mission seems to have problems with way points triggers as well. Need to play them again to figure it out properly. Also, was the campaign looked at? I can never get passed mission 3. I do all it requests but it won't complete properly.
