F4U training Footage

Mom sent me this link in an Email this morning.  The film is a training tool for the F4U pilots. 

Check it out here:  http://www.rogerdodger.net/videos/ww2/f4u.html

This video was featured here before some years ago. I remember at the time someone dryly commented that if the rather complex engine management was realistically simulated in the Aces High F4U, there'd be a lot of blown engines in the main arena.

Now that it's been posted again I must download it this time.

Yes there would be.  And flying tactics would drastically change too.

Keep in mind, this would be the case for ALL planes.

I would be willing to bet that more than 50% would not even able to get air-born let alone fly !
