thnks humble.

a quick description of the films.

"pony-lalas": me in a p51 draging 2 La7s from the horde and knocking them out. (note the text buffer ;)  )

"109e-262": im in a 109e fighting a 262, its a long boring fight but in the end i mannage to bait the 262 to throw cation awey, and get a shot.

"p51-p38": im again in my trusty pony, and i fight a p38, i use alot of short dives, utilizing the pony exellend accelaration in a dive, to gain those extra MPH i need for the fight.



hope you liked it.  :)

I liked the P51 vs 2 lalas.  Actually, the best part was reading the challenge on the text buffer!  Very impressive to take down two lalas who are winging  :aok

very nice clips.

On a side note, in the 51 vs 38 clip, you manage to bring the 51 down to 31mph, nose pointed slightly up while holding full throttle (flaps out). Then let the nose drop softly back down. That's impressive control but I also think this shows that the AH flight model still has some gaps. I'd expect a lot of fighting with the torque at these extreme low speeds, when you get maximum torque from the prop and minimum support from the wings to counter it.

This is my OPINION. I have nothing to back this up.

Personally I think its the helium flyboy pumps into his plane. You can tell his plane cause its the one with the string hanging down (damm balloon)....

Actually I noticed it during a recent series of encounters we had...just outstanding E/plane management control. I'd of had 95% of the guys I run into under similiar circumstances but ended up with empty air and no E and a 38 hangin over me. In fact I bet I have em both floating around...probably good ones to post...

i agree with you bozon.

the torque on AH is neutered.
the only plane that you really feel the torque on is the spit14 and the 109g10 and F4u4 to some extent.

190 A5 has some pretty tempremental stall effects and torque issues at lower speeds as well (and high alt as I have noticed recently).

Felt that this needed a SERIOUS bump.

Just had the most boring sortie of my life.  Over 18 minutes of following a P-51 around in my F4.  First we went E, then W, the S, then N, finally to be dragged through ack before someone else killed me.

He made three HO attempts, misses on all, and an "extension" of about 3-4 minutes and 4-5k before turning around and missing again.

Naturally, the fellow has nearly a 4/1 K/D in the plane.....

Pay to play your way for sure, but if there are any pony pilots out there that think this post describes them pretty well, check out Flyboy's P-51 clip....  It IS possible to be aggressive and come out on top!

to all who try! No to those who make insanely boring films possible!
