Do P51s breed sucky pilots??

[LilMak]

51s don't breed sucky pilots. They breed lazy pilots.

Its a look at me post, but here's pretty much the best example I can give of pushing the 51 beyond its comfort zone.

I dont think ive ever heard of the F4U pilot, but regardless it was a fun fight. He should have had me a few times, but I'll chalk that up to unpredictable defensive flying

This is why I love flying the 51. People dont expect such aggressive fighting from them, but when it happens, it makes for magical videos.

Fight starts around 11:11.

HELLO GUYS, just asking if one of those good p51-D People out there might have some time to do a walk through video,like the ones on the 109's and zeros ive seen on you tube. im no ace by any means however,im always looking to learn from the upper crust types who have air time in said plane. i dont mind being shot down in a fight but i also like to learn what im doing wrong in that plane,no fun if your not learning ! thanks

You should look up BatfinkV in game...he's a trainer...he'd be happy to help you as any of the trainers would I'm sure.

Lots of good Pony drivers in game...some have been mentioned in this thread...see if you can fly with them and theyll teach you as well...of make you a target and you can try to learn from that  LOL

Good luck

I dont know of any really great films off hand, but here is one I made the other night. Not really a walkthrough, but kind of a demonstration instead. I am way too lazy to capture it and upload to youtube, but viewing it in the ahfilm viewer is better anyway. Make sure you check the "use recorded views" option so you can see whats going on. https://www.dropbox.com/sh/v3eyp8kyqcd9k0v/dbZRr-aJ4m

I can't watch the film at the moment, or comment on it, but one thing that may help after watching with the recorded views is to watch it again from an external view and have the 'Trails' checked, so you can see the flight paths of the planes.
