Those who have it working, please tell us step by step how to fire it up. Thanks in advance!

Put it in the same MODS\STD\com\maddox\il2 folder that your Objects folder is in. Not any other. If you don't, the game will ignore it.

Replaying a mission where I-16's bounce scrambling 109's; the 109's try to extend away at ground level in a straight line. Before this, the default AI was breaking left/right once flaps were raised.
Can't comment on much else though.
