Yes, I know, myriad posters will write in to say what a shtty pilot I am, etc....

...But, this is a bit much, no ?
If you haven't already done so... maybe it's time to see a track of this happening. Because when I do what you describe I don't have the same problems. I still love flying the Mustang as it's just such a capable fighter.

Post it... lets have a look.
