Thanx for the responses guys......
I found out about the flap setting the hard way.......against a spit8.
Love the G.....turns like anything but not with full flaps (anymore).
Try diving in the G, damn thing just doesnt compress....chased down a couple of LAs n Yaks in it.
Lack of Wep does affect it a bit though, have to consciously force myself to turn a bit more and go a bit less vertical.
Between J and L though, I find myself that the L does handle better at higher speeds, but feel that J has a slightly better roll rate at lower speeds (may be wrong on that). J does compress like the L and without dive flaps have hit the dirt a couple of times.....
None the less I like the colouring of the J, looks cool:aok .
So ultimately, I am right in assuming that the weight discrepancy between J and L is just a typo and not modelled in the game?
