I stay information well into the lower attitudes, but as the formation has gotten higher attitudes it's staying in formation.

Reduce the engine mixture. Basically you reduce it as much as the engine will take, maybe 2-3 notches before if starts to stall.
For some aircraft with engines that may have had a basic auto mixture or other engine features you can turn on auto mixture in the workshop (or if you want to play on an easier setting).

A WOFF user Bletchley once said "basically, only the Allied aircraft, and some Rumplers, actually had a mixture control lever"

So if you are a German pilot turn on auto mixture in the workshops and you would not be far wrong.

Will auto mixture make it easier?
