Looking for some 38 flyers.
« on: December 03, 2007, 05:44:09 PM »
I've been interested in getting better at flying p-38s.  I know there's a few really good cats out there (Murdr, etc).  Anyone of you guys feel like spending a half hour with me for a little bit of instruction?

I'm fairly familiar with the characteristics of the 38.  I'm just no sure how to exploit it's advantages.  Doesn't seem to have very many.  But I just love the gun package.  Those four 50cals packed so close together cut through other planes like a lightsaber!  Plus the plane is just so damn cool looking (probably the most beautiful of all the game imho).

Yeah, I'd like to learn how to REALLY fly this thing.

Any takers?

general mindset is
p38= big easy to hit target so when your learning it be prepared to get hit (a lot) after its mastered and your fluid in it you can avoid most any shot.
i don't know very much about them other than that people on noe rades just love to lawndart in them lol

The P-38's size is rather deceptive. Yeah there's a lot of airplane, but the configuration can make her very difficult to hit.
Ron White says you can't fix stupid. I beg to differ. Stupid will usually sort itself out, it's just a matter of making sure you're not close enough to become collateral damage.
