omg steve lookie I can make the 51 sing kinda !

[Yenny]

well, actually i just wanted to show that the 51 is so so much more maneuverable then the 190s. That is all, Steve asked me to film some 51 flight stuff. So I decided to take a 51 up for furballing. Here is 1 out of 3 pick that steve pwned on me. 3 out of 3 51 sorties! omg all 3 of my 51s were picked by Steve! It was fun stuff though! Oh and I love the new model of that 262! i was pulling like 6-7G at 250 knts tnbin that thign and the wings were still there!

Oh yea I was kinda breaking off the niki to type=/ such bad call but couldn't resist it

=D it's okay 190 > P51 !

The 190 isnt even in the same LEAGUE as a P-51.

Could be, could be.

Could be the P-51 doesn't do anything better than a Spit or 109 than run, really, if we want to be honest, but oh well.

Could be that once you get past the e-noodle stroking, the ability to engage and disengage at will is kind of nice in the MA, and that is the strength of the Mustang AND Dora vs. 98% of the rest of the plane set. So they end up being flown in an almost identical style.

I always get lucky with a P-51... I'm not sure if I have the sortie, but near the end, I went into a group of like 10 Rooks/Knits (Maybe bishops, I'm not sure if I was rook at the time or not) and furball. I come out of it and land 5 kills. 

[Banshee7]

I've had some wonderful P-51 sorties that i will never top out.  My greatest was 11 kills in one sorite no rearms and no damage.  Was a nice furball and i was doing a mixture of TnB and BnZ. I never got to full flaps and i kept as much E as possible as we were outnumbered.

I'll agree but not for performance issues. Simply because nothing has the range of a Pony but more importantly the views of the Pony it has the best all round and especially over the nose view compared to any other fighter. Making gunnery and SA all the more easier.

In addition to usual performance aspects that make it one of the best rides in the game.

I  think it is inferior to other late war rides. It certainly does have great views.

[Anaxogoras]

Fwiw, I think the 190D-9 is superior to the P-51D at main arena altitudes.  It's faster, climbs better, rolls better, and has more firepower.  Where it falls behind is range and air-to-ground ability.

It might be inferior in one aspect or another performance wise to other late model rides but overall it's very good. The point I was making is that it has the best views in the game especially over the nose and fuel range which are overlooked as a significant advantage compared to any other ride.

Views,fuel range,overall performance,six 50s and ammo to spare is what makes it one of the best rides in the game and above some other late war rides.

Of course then HT went and patched the F4U making it the best non jet ride in the game by giving the late war F4Us the performance of a pony plus the low speed performance of a zeke with it's uber flaps. Which is just hilarious every time I come across one.

Ya, I get a kick out guys that fly the f4u then claim thate 5q drivers suck because they only fly an uber ride. hehehh.  Now go watch the film I posted about Tec... it will make you laugh at least once.

       You forgot a few things Anaxogoras. The 190 bleeds E in hard turns far faster, lacks combat flaps, accelerates slower, far less armored, has a glass radiator, poor view, speed...barely, firepower.....even that one is a matter of opinion. Stability favors the 51 too. My personal best is 10 in a Bravo (no rearm) and 19 in a 51D (rearm). I have more counts of "How did you do that?" and "Your *^*&ing" than I care to remember too. The plane is far better at a lot of things than most would care to admit or learn how to do themselves. If the FM is weak I cant wait to see what she will do fixed!
