Im only recently becoming known a s a good stick, so the skill level is getting there. But I would love fpr a skilled 38 pilot to show me the ropes, because I can't get her. My callsign is condor and I fly bish, but illgo where ever for training. Please let me know.

If you have any free time tonight there will be trainers in the arena from 6pm-10pm EDT.  I'm on the west coast so I won't be there for a couple hours yet but I'm happy to field questions. 

Alternatively I'd be happy to setup some one on one time as well.  I'm a little tight on flying time at the moment, but could conceivably get something set up either next week or the week after. 

Shoot me a private message if you're interested, you could also try Silat or Delirium who both fly the 38 and see if their schedules are any better than mine at the moment.

Yea, especially me. I totally suck at flying period. I'll be darned if I can land the sorry bird with gears down. :(

Thanks for the offer Traveler but Plazus may be exaggerating his ineptness just a wee bit for comedic effect. :)

I've also started logging some sorties in P38s.  Big  :salute to Traveler for sharing some films with me and big  :salute to Delirium for answering a few questions on ch200 for me this tonight.

I was wondering if someone can detail the differences between the J and L models, beyond the dive flap on the L of course.  I've been flying the J, but i really don't know what the pros and cons between the models are.

Thanks

There's actually very little to choose from between the J and L models.  They have the same weight and engine power, the L has the boosted ailerons and the dive flaps.
