Looking for some training on offense/defense, flap usage in the P38. I'm on the west coast but can be flexible as to the time/days.

Easier said then done, especially flying a bomber.

Barrel roll reversals work very well against an attacker that is bouncing from the six position, then there are other situations where maybe using a rolling scissors to force the reverals may work.  It helps if you could provide some scenarios where you have troubles in reversing, then we can get a little more specific on what to do in those instances.

Do this...
1) roll about 220-240 degrees, pull back and cut under the other guys nose
2) then pull up and initiate a rolling scissors with the guy on your six (now prob on your 9).

The trick is to force the attacker to be at an off angle to your tail.
Yeah, that's right, you just got your rear handed to you by a fuggly puppet!
