Wow a P-38 Lightning would be so fun in this game.
I think it gets my top vote!

The thing had a nullified gyroscopic effect due to the counter-rotating props. In realistic/sim, you'd never have to trim ailerons/rudder and if you were pulling up REAL hard (with level wings, albeit), you'd never enter an accelerated stall.

Plus stall turns in sim, you'd easily be able to pull off with no scare of spinning out of control due to torque.

Nein Meine Herren. I'd Rather stick to the German Luftwaffe. ( We have Fantastic Music. And Planes.)

I believe the music in that clip the "Luftwaffe March" was composed by the British composer George Fenton.

Hey, what about the French Caudron C. 714!? That's a weird yet cool plane. Very strange design.

I couldn't find a pic with French Markings. But that's a French plane for sure. I wouldn't mind flying it, even though it may not be the most maneuverable plane. But it's well armed.

hello
yes ,the c714(caudron-renault c714 cyclone)is a french plane
this plane was not very good :a lot of crash because of technicals problems and french air force forbid the fly of all the c714 but with the war the c714s go to fight with the poland pilots during the battle of france(figther group1/145 "varsovie")
the c714 had 4 machine-guns mac of 7,5 mm
max speed at 5000 meters:460kms/hours
i thinks pilots were very courageous to fly in this plane!!!!!
