P-39 in IL2 was a pleasure to fly. Its got that great cockpit with the side opening door,just so uniquely cool.
Its flight model was very...'twitchy' at first, but with experience flying it, it was a very manueverable little machine at low to mid alts. The quick roll rate surprised me! Perhaps it was a result of the mid-engined design.
What a thrilling ride-takes some getting used to though-she will spin-out easily until you get her unique feel. Unlike any front engined plane.
The mix of 3 different calibres makes gunnery a bit odd, again takes practice-not a beginners plane by any means, but very rewarding to suceed with her.
Id love a P-38 too, .she loves to fight in the vert.
But Ive never flown the IL2 version of her flight model.
Any fly herin IL2 ? Comments?
