By the way this guy made a videotape flying the P38 around. I have it at home; pretty nice.

I have that video too. He did a good job in remaking the original P-38 flight training film and is a must for any dedicated P-38 driver.

U guys work to hard , just stay at 20k and zap the low flying bastages. All that throttle talk is giving me a headache.

AKAK is that the film that teaches landing takoffs and manuvers in P38 you had put up. Think it was a old training film I rember was in black and white i think.

And the trottle thing gets me messed up more than it does help me. Ive tried and tried but end up stalling out more than ever lol. Only time its really helped me is with parts of my plane missing and if wanna do 360s on the ground. Thanks for the input though guys.

Yep, that's the film.

With controlling both engines, you have to be careful when increasing throttle. When you are in a turn and you cut back on one throttle and then have to slam the throttle to full, you have to cut back your throttle for the other engine first and then advance both throttle to full at the same time. Otherwise you can enter into a viscious snap roll spin, or lose lift one the wing you slammed the throttle to full on. Which is one of the theories on how McGuire crashed his P-38. Don't know if this is modelled in AH but I'm assuming so and so that's what I did when I flew with a dual throttle.

Thanks. Remember it's the P-38 films I want, not the sheep porn but I'll take those too.
