go and fly it against a spitV or even a spitVIII.  the CT would be a good venue this week, until Friday when the set up changes.  please post your impressions/results here.

I noticed a huge improvement.  

Still checking it out, though.

All the best,

Wot?
Well off I go, checking :D
It was very interesting to carry out the flight trials at Rechlin with the Spitfire and the Hurricane. Both types are very simple to fly compared to our aircraft, and childishly easy to take-off and land. (Werner Mölders)

Neg, it's not the A5 that's changed. It's the SpitV. A5 outperforms the V a bit better now. Other than that, it's the same 190 we've had since the last major patch (when the 190s were redone I mean)

Storch,

I have not since v2.06 has been released.  What changes do you notice?  I'll give it a go tonight though.

I'm not so sure, it's more about a change in the balance/CG and the way the plane stalls or more importantly how it doesn't.  I'm able to pull it much further in high AoAs and not viciously drop the right wing.  but it coulde be as you say as well.

It's been that way since the 190 models were redone (and yet the official word is "no FM changes were made".

I'll take your word on it Krusty but I play the model almost every day and I first noticed it monday.  I kept my opinion to myself and flew it exclusively yesterday.  It is playing very pleasently and balanced.  It wasn't prior to monday at least not to the extent we are currently experiencing, for me anyways.

Ah, well I fly it often myself as well, but had not noticed any new changes. I thought what you were describing was the change we felt when the 190 3D models were redone.

If you notice a change in how the 190's fly and can't figure out the reason you might want to look at the way the fuel is loaded and used now versus the older versions of AH...

A5 felt really good to me too when I flew it.  But then again I never really flew the A5 much, only the A8.  The A5 still isn't as amazing around the stall as the uber 51s and 47s though

A8 still sucks arse. Can't even pull a loop well. I was struggling very hard against a spit16 and an la7 in the a8, in a situation where an A5 would have killed 'em both easily and kept on going.
