To all the great AHII fliers who had helped me so very much with ur advice, which I took to heart & practiced offline for quite a few hours, I'm grateful to you for ur un-
selfishness with ur recommendations  ... it works ... now all I've to do is to perfect
my technique in divebombing, rocket firing & controlling the P38, angle of attack,
etc.. & so forth.      
The p38 gunstar sight I didn't like, however, the p51 gunsight listed by Uptown is
my preference, have to get used to so many things to do it right      Well now that
my thanks are expressed.... it's back to practice .... practice ... & ... more practice !

..........A good approach angle is approx 60 degrees. It's easy to determine by looking straight ahead and rolling your wings to 60 degrees. A secret to the correct approach path is to always take the 60 roll in from a point on your plane........

Thanks for that Ren  . I have always had an issue with achieving a consistent approach angle, and used to just 'wing it'. Never occurred to me to use roll for setting up the approach, doh!

What are these bombs and rockets of which you speak?

All I fly is the P38G and I don't know what you are talking about

Now if you want to discuss Torps for the town, I think I can help
