I'm using it for reference of the Soviet R-10 as well The game is a good model of combat tactics, gunnery, formation flying, etc but sadly you cannot perform complex tasks in the cockpit (one can control throttle, prop pitch, fuel mixture, etc, but engine is started with a simple keystroke)

It probably wouldn't be easy to emulate an engine start on aircraft of this era. (Digs in memory)...

- Hold the stick back with right leg
- Pump fuel with left hand
- Spin up the inertia starter with right hand (30secs)
- Engage clutch and hope the thing fires up.
