The aircraft is excellent, so first of all, thank you for another machine that captures the spirit of the era :)

And a big plus for the Polish livery.

I tried adding a screenshot to my previous post but failed—it seems I can't embed images directly into posts.

Here is a link to the photo on Google Drive:

For me, the heat shimmer effect (from hot exhaust gases) near the exhaust pipes causes texture distortion—likely because the outlet is positioned quite far back (though this was historically accurate for the RAF S.E.5a).
The texture "warps" when looking left or right; I checked the settings in `cameras.cfg` and found that the issue is less noticeable with a higher camera position.

InitialXyz= -0.002334, 0.691, -1.1
InitialPbh = -19.559046,-0.01,0.01

The effect simply occurs very close to the camera; if it were further away, angled differently, or positioned at the front, the problem likely wouldn't exist.

If I could quickly identify which `.spb` file controls this effect, I could simply disable it in the simulator.

Either way, it’s a fantastic aircraft and great fun to fly.

Best regards
