Please re-read the post and look at the image I posted. The P-38's profile was compared to other US Army Air Corps fighters, not Axis. Also, keyword being profile.
ack-ack
i think what he was trying to get at though is that he feels they're easier to hit on a deflection shot, and on thayt point, i can see what he means. that's why when i do evasives in the 38, i kinda try to keep em shallow till i think he's about to overshoot, then i pull harder. i could however be wrong though, as i have been quite often, as shown by my success rate int he 38.
