Yes, the 13th is primarily a P-51 squad; we do fly other aircraft at some times. Squad night is always P-51 however.

We've always been Bishop since beta and that's unlikely to change.

Squad Charter is HERE
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude than the animated contest of freedom, go from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen!

I've been flying the F4U-1 a lot the past couple months and just the other day decided to start putting in time on my favorite from the Euro theater, the P51B.  I got into a fight with a P38, AKRoper I think, and I couldn't believe the 51B kept snap rolling on me when I'd try to make a turn.  I thought the F4U was supposed to have a problem, but I couldn't control this 51!  What is up with that?  Is that a historical characteristic of the Pony?  And, I can see this thing being a bit of an advantage once you know how to control it.  

BTW, the 51D is in serious need of a facelift.  I'd like to see a checkernose or a blue-nose something along the lines of Bizkit's image.

When I used to fly the La7 I'd target 51's, Tiffs and 190's as well as other La7's. When I switched to the F6F I tried to do the same. I'm surprised that my K/D against the 51's actualy went up as well as my K/D against the K1K2's and La7's. 190's are now my biggest problem in the MA, they just won't commit to a 1v1 as often as Pony drivers will :D

There are a few planes I like to fly the P-38 is second on my list.  But my favorite ride is the P-51B.   It's a much better ride then the P-51D in my opinion.

P-51B, never leave home without it.
