Gatt, you may very well be correct on the performance, I honestly don't know myself. My point was that there has been open and intelligent discussion on that aircraft's performance. And Pyro was open to suggestions on the aircraft if it could be backed up with hard data. Not some kind of super secret "anti-Axis" conspiracy as Fishu suggested.
I do have to say that I have flown the C.202 in the Med arena against Spit Vs, in multi-plane versus multi-plane encounters, and I thought it was competitive. IMO, its greatest weakness was its lack of cannons, and overall anemic firepower, which is quite historic from my understanding.
And Fishu,
"I don't give mercy for flight models even if its one of my favorite planes *G*" And I do?

Am I supporting the "anti-allied" conspiracy all of a sudden?

My point was that in 1.03 you were proposing that it was too good and its performance trimmed back. Now in 1.04 all the other aircraft got better, and the P47 stayed the same. Isn't that the same net effect?
A-1=B (reduce P47 performance to equal planeset)
is equal to
A=B+1 (improve planeset, to equal P47 performance)
