I just got IL-2 for Christmas and I've been playing with it pretty much all day. Great cockpits and graphics, especially the sun/sky! To start off with, I thought I'd take up a plane that I know a little about, the Fw-190A5 (I installed the 1.02b patch). I notice that the critical height seems to be sea level and the fastest I could get a FW-190A5 to go was 490 km/h @ 6000m (TAS with WEP). Is there a way to change supercharger gears or something?

Hi.
Did you have the prop trimmed out?

Yes, auto-pitch. The problem seems to be that the engine isn't maintaining power up to 6000m, like it should. All realism settings were on except for external view and wind/turbulence.
