also... lol... who says i would be a chalange for you on that game... i have never played IL2 1946... i have played IL2 Birds Of Pray, and may i say i prefer CFS3 over that! the P-51B Mustang in that game looks like a P-51A with 4 20MM Cannons... and its performance is very poor... games can be very different from each other, even "Simulators..." you may have a edge beacuse you play the game, and i would have to get used to the controls... a IL2 P-51 may fly compleetly different than a CFS3 P-51

yet again, the P-51 in my flight simulator is not at all like the one in the game, i have modified it so it flies more realistically... the one that CFS3 comes with has a nasty glitch... or failed ill attempted effort to simulate its stall characteristic with the aft tank full... (yet it still does it with under a 50% fuel load.) when you pull back on the stick hard to go inverted all the way, or to turn... it says "near stall" or if you pull back hard enough "Warning stall" and the stall light comes on in the cockpit and the airplanes turn rate slows right down. you can only pull back on the stick so much, and it makes its turn sluggish... i have modified my Mustang, and it turns much more realistically, and the point where the "stall glitch" as i like to call it, does not happen so sudden... you have to pull back on the stick much harder to make it happen.
