Take up the Hurri Mk1

Seriously take about a week of flying it, getting to know what it can and can't do and after that week when you start landing some kills.....ALL the other planes (except the always crappy Spit Mk1) ride on rails.

But if you fly the hurri for a week you might want to fly it longer than that

Yea but it was better before the patch and a pony could handle a spit in WWII. Did it say anything about them changeing the pony in the patch fourm?

the P51 D is still one of the easiest planes in the game to get kills in, certainly top 5.

I would never expect to be able to turn with a spitfire in this game in a P-51D.

However, what I have noticed is that the P-51D will now snap roll at speeds below 200 if you pull back on the nose in a sudden manuver.  This is new to the revised flight model.  It happenes with flaps in and with combat flaps.  I myself never drop more than 25% flaps while in combat.

What?? THE HMk1???.... Not such a crappy ride. Its a death trap, yes, thats what it is. (Ill leave interpretation on whose death to you)

Made several changes to the flight model affecting static thrust, propeller slipstream effects,
ground effect, flaps and slats. This affects all planes to one degree or another. Due to this change, the
table that controls combat trim had to be redone for all planes.

Oh come on.  Next you'll be wanting them to read instructions or actually pick up a book and read something rather than making statements with no basis in fact.  You should know by now making up your own facts is standard BBS procedure.  How dare you quote notes from the update?!?!?!?

For punishment, you must fly every mission in a SBD for the rest of the tour!

Had a few people cut me some slack because I was in a hurri mk1

I just cannot take the lack of rolling ability and the spacing of the 303's on the Spit Mk1s wings.

The hurri has em nice and grouped, but the spit puts them in 3 different spots.

And somehow the Spit feels tons heavier then the Hurri. I cant really tell why, but its sluggish.
