The P-51 is a plane that takes a special skill that I have just now recently started to get good at.. You have to maintain a lot of momentum and fly at a high rate of speed before almost any manuever... This plane is definately capable of doing serious damage, however do as I did and go to training with the P-51B vs 16 spitfires.. Once you can accomplish this, then maybe you are ready to try it online.... The plane is awsome just not at low speeds in a turning battle  |
O man the P-51B/D's are great at low speed turns. You just need to know how to use it. It has a very low stall speed like 130- or somthing. You can also slow down faster then most fighters giving you the op to have a tango over shoot you landing you on his 6. I have seen alot of vet pilots put it into a spinn to slow down most new players will tend to over shoot. Then the pilot corrects and is on you like stink on a skunk.
