There are two types of aeroplane, Spitfires and everything else that wishes it was a Spitfire!

Yes indeed, my wife bought me Wings of Power for my birthday.  I would say they rate real close to Briefing Time for realistic warbirds.  I have yet to make a successful full load take of in the Superfort though.  So far I've only been able to keep her airborne with half load of fuel.  I don't how the real B-29 handled fully loaded but if the Wings of Power B-29 is accurate then my deepest respect for the pilots who flew them is due.

For me its a very close call between the WoP P-51 and the Real Air Spit. For me, the Spit probably wins (just) on the buffet and stall characteristics (which seem a little closer to what I would expect from the real one), but again, without flying the real thing its hard to tell

Is the spit worth 25 or so bucks?
Is it hard on frames?

IMO, yes. Very high quality. I run a modest system and it work fine for me, with no trouble getting 20-30fps...
