Great video  :aok


I would have love to gone to that show so hopefully it'll be out in my neck of the woods someday. It's really sad though that as years go by, men and women who fought in that war are becoming fewer and fewer

Big  :salute to everyone who fought in that war, regardless of what country

It isn't underpowered, and it is an extremely capable fighter, if it is flown the way it should be. However, not many people in AH fly the P51 the way it should be flown, and that leads to poor results and a poor impression of the aircraft. During WWII the P51 was almost always flown to its strengths because it was in the hands of some of the best trained pilots in the world at that time.

Truly the last of a great generation..doesn't matter which branch of service. There will never be another.  Honor them whenever you have the opportunity.

Thanks for sharing.  :salute

I saw that one a while back.. Great great video. Hits pretty close to home to me personally with my grandfather and I.. He flew P-47's in WWII and watching this chokes me up a little each time..

no, its not really funny.  The P51 is one of the most capable FMs in game.  Caveat being if it is employed using its strengths......plus training coupled with tactical discipline.

Excellent Film and Website

My buddy from AW, did a painting of some aircraft from his unit, the 31st FG.

Amazing. I'm choked up at the beauty of the plane and the class of the pilot. They don't make either of them like that anymore. :salute
