Nonsense. First, the makers of Aces High were the makers of Warbirds, not Air Warrior. Second, I exclusively flew the AW P-38 for almost four years. I loved it; it was a great overall ride and the most versatile plane in that game. However, even I think that for all its shortcomings, the Aces High P-38 is probably closer to the mark than the Air Warrior one. If you want something with similar feel to the AW 38 in AH, try the Spit IX. In AH, it holds many of the same strengths and weaknesses: very good but not the best at turning, nice vertical control, medium speed, above average acceleration, nice firepower. Alas, there's no "airbrake" like on the AW 38, but that was improperly modelled anyway.
hey, if the corsairs doesnt fly like you like it, than make it more uber!

The specific Corsair flight model hasn't been changed in a very long time now. All planes were affected by the addition of autotrim and corrections to incorrectly modelled E bleed. Frankly, I don't see what the fuss is with Corsairs. I've never had a problem with them in AH, and I suspect with a little practice most people wouldn't either. They're just another plane with some above average guns.
