please read my posting correctly.. I said Vanir was doing the FM

here is the post you missed..~~~~> viewtopic.php?t=14162&highlight=ta152

i would also like to state this: Im sure that not many people here can actually say that they flew any given plane type during a combat scenario. So maybe just because it handles like a pig or doesnt fly like a spitfire then maybe just maybe you could be flying it incorrectly or it did handle like a pig. After all Fm is based on technical data and im sure Oleg and his team did the best they could.

That is why we say "lay" opinion. For me, a plane should generally fly the way it looks. The Ta-152 is a late war high performance plane that feels like something is lacking. It might be pilot error.

Correct. And it might be that the IL-2 engine benefits T&B planes over B&Z ones...
