There is no doubt that it is twitchy in this game but I have still managed to take out a handful of FW-190's and complete the strafing mission.

still... it should not fly like it is flying in this game, altitude plays a role, a big one, but the P-51 is just unflyable at ANY altitude in this game.
yes it did shine at high altitude, it was a high alt performer, but is was not a low altitude sucker.
some people keep on defending the performance of the P-51 in this game, by saying 'it was a high alt performer'. but really, it was still 10 times better at low altitude, than the one in the game.
what im saying is: the P-51 was GOOD at low/medium altitudes, it was at least an equal to the 109 in dogfights.
the P-51 DOMINATED the 109 at high altitudes, because it would not lose performance, were the 109 did.
so still at tree top level, you should at least be able to give a 109 a hard time, with the P-51 in this game, you simply CANT.
