Just been playing around with the A2A Mustang and the RealAir Spitfire, and noticed that it's incredibly easy to generate wingtip vortices, in dry weather and under a fairly light G loading. However, the Mustang was generating them at around 2G, whereas I had to take the Spitfire up to about 3.5G to see them, which got me thinking - is there a way to change the conditions needed for the vortices to be seen, e.g. the amount of G being pulled? I've never seen any warbird of that era pull vortices in dry conditions - it's had to have been humid and the aircraft had to have been turning extremely hard to get anything noticeable, so 2G for the Mustang is ridiculously low.
Knowing Microsoft, however, it's probably one of those annoying built in things that can't be changed!
